An Introduction To Embedded Tk (page 32 of 32)

14 Summary And Acknowledgements

Over the past two years, many people have used ET to build programs from a mixture of Tcl/Tk and C. Projects have ranged in size from student programming assignments up to large-scale (100,000+ lines) commercial development efforts. In all cases, ET has proven to be an effective alternative to other GUI toolkits.

The original implementation of ET grew out of a programming contract from Lucent Technologies (formerly AT&T Bell Laboratories). Lucent Technologies was in turn funded under a contract from the United States Navy. Many thanks go to Richard Blanchard at Lucent Technologies and to Charlie Roop, Dave Toms and Clair Guthrie at PMO-428 for allowing ET to be released to the public domain.
