- =head1 NAME
-
- Tk::804delta - what is new for perl/Tk 804
-
- =head1 DESCRIPTION
-
- This document describes differences between the Tk800 series and the
- Tk804 series.
-
- =head1 Incompatible Changes
-
- Tk804 will only work with perl 5.8.0 and above. For older perl
- versions look for Tk800.025.
-
- B<curselection> of B<Tk::Listbox> now returns an array reference in
- scalar context. This means you have to write
-
- my(@selected) = $listbox->curselection
-
- or
-
- my(@selected) = @{ $listbox->curselection }
-
- now.
-
- The B<fontActual> method now returns the pixel value instead of the
- point value for B<-size>. Pixel values are expressed as negative
- numbers.
-
- Some enhancements from the E<quot>dashE<quot> patches are lost for now
- (i.e. B<-tile>, B<-troughtile> ...).
-
- The B<-state> option is not available anymore for B<Tk::Text> tags.
- Use B<-elide> instead.
-
- =head1 Enhancements
-
- Tk804 is Unicode-aware.
-
- It is possible to build Tk with Xft support on X11. This is strongly
- recommened if you are planning to make use of Unicode rendering
- capabilities of Tk. It also gives anti-aliased fonts for regular text
- (if you have TrueType or Type1 fonts and they are in your fontconfig
- config file).
-
- The new method B<chooseDirectory> is available as a standard directory
- selector.
-
- B<Tk::PNG> and B<Tk::JPEG> are bundled now with the perl/Tk
- distribution, providing support for the image formats B<png> and
- B<jpeg>.
-
- Improvements to B<Tk::Listbox>: new option B<-activestyle>, new
- methods B<itemconfigure> and B<itemcget>, new virtual event B<<<
- <<ListboxSelect>> >>>.
-
- More tests.
