Tkx::Tutorial Perl module contains a tutorial about how to use Tkx.

Tk is a toolkit that allows you to create applications with graphical interfaces for Windows, Mac OS X and X11. The Tk toolkit is native to the Tcl programming language, but its ease of use and cross-platform availability has made it the GUI toolkit of choice for many other dynamic languages as well.

Tkx is a Perl module that makes the Tk toolkit available to Perl programs. By loading the Tkx module Perl programs can create windows and fill them with text, images, buttons and other controls that make up the user interface of the application.

Hello World

Lets start with the mandatory exercise of creating an application that greats the world. Here we make the application window contain a single button which will shut down the application if clicked. The code to make this happen is:

use Tkx;

Tkx::button(".b",
-text => "Hello, world",
-command => sub { Tkx::destroy("."); },
);
Tkx::pack(".b");

Tkx::MainLoop()

Save this to a file called hello.pl and then run perl hello.pl to start up the application. A window with the text "Hello, world" should appear on your screen.
After the Tkx module has been loaded by the use Tkx statement the application will show an empty window called ".". We create a button with the name ".b" and tell the window to display the button with the call to Tkx::pack(). After the layout of the window has been set up we need to pass control back to Tk so that it can draw the window and invoke our callback if the button is clicked. This is achieved by the Tkx::MainLoop() call at the end. Clicking the button will invoke the subroutine registered with the -command option of the button. In this case the callback simply destroys the window, which in turn will terminate the application.

Sudokut is a command line solver for Sudoku puzzles. When supplied with a Sudoku string or file, it returns all possible solutions.
Sudokut takes approximately half a second to solve a medium force Sudoku by using an efficient algorithm that is guaranteed to find all the solutions. It accepts many options that implement various features (validity check, diff, suggestions, and probing).
Enhancements:
- two new solving techniques are supported: naked triplets reduction, hidden triplets reduction
- new -u option to test the unicity of the solution
- new -m option to modify the string

Album::Tutorial is a Perl module on how to use the Album program.

SYNOPSIS

This tutorial describes the basic use of the Album program to create and maintain browser based photo albums.

Getting started

To get started, create a new directory and cd to it. Create a subdirectory large and put some pictures there. If you have installed the album tool in your execution path, you can now execute it as follows:

$ album -v
No info.dat, adding images from large
info.dat: Cannot update (does not exist)
Number of entries = 7 (7 added)
mkdir thumbnails
mkdir icons
mkdir css
Creating icons: first-gr.png first.png ... sound.png movie.jpg
Creating style sheets: common.css index.css ... journal.css
im023.jpg: thumbnail OK
im024.jpg: thumbnail OK
im025.jpg: thumbnail OK
im026.jpg: thumbnail OK
im027.jpg: thumbnail OK
im028.jpg: thumbnail OK
im029.jpg: thumbnail OK
Creating pages for 7 images
(Needed to write 7 image pages)
Creating pages for 1 index
(Needed to write 1 index page)

Your results will vary, but be similar to this example run. What you can see is that album found 7 images in the large directory, created thumbnails, icons and css directories, created thumbnails by resizing the images, and finally created the HTML pages. You can inspect your first photo album by opening file index.html with your favorite browser. You can click on any image to see the larger version. Navigation buttons are provided to the left of the image.

It is interesting to run album again:

$ album -v
No info.dat, adding images from large
info.dat: Cannot update (does not exist)
Number of entries = 7 (7 added)
.......[7]
Creating pages for 7 images
(No image pages needed updating)
Creating pages for 1 index
(No index pages needed updating)

album tries to avoid doing unnecessary work as much as possible. In this case, all thumbnails and image and index pages are up to date. The line of periods shows progress, one period for each image processed.

Test::Unit::Tutorial is a Perl module that contains a tutorial on unit testing.

SYNOPSIS

perldoc Test::Unit::Tutorial

Here should be extensive documentation on what unit testing is, why it is useful, and how to do it with the Test::Unit collection of modules.

Sorry for not implementing this yet.

Please have a look at the examples in the examples directory and read the README file that came with this distribution.

A short tutorial on how to use the unit testing framework is included in Test::Unit::TestCase.

Further examples can be found by looking at the self test collection, starting in Test::Unit::tests::AllTests.
