[R] Show graph integrated to GUI

[Michael H. Prager]

I'm seeking suggestions for a book on Tcl/Tk, as it can be used with R. 
The book I bought for the purpose ("Effective Tcl/Tk Programming") seems 
quite unsuitable. For example, it has no description of anything like 
the slider control provided by tkscale().

I have located the Tcl and Tk documentation provided with the R 
distribution. That has plenty of detail. Now I would like something with 
more of an overview, including numerous examples and illustrations.

Thanks,
MHP
