I have made available the splash library. The splash library implements
a new Tcl/Tk toplevel widget that aims at showing one (or more) splash
windows during the initialisation phase of an application or any other
lengthy operation. The library opens a pseudo-widget and offers a
number of configuration options to control the appearance and behaviour
of the splash window.
It is available for download from my home page,

Now that's interesting timing... Not more than 10 minutes ago, I
finished coding a splash screen / about box for an application I've
been working on. In fact, I spent part of the morning scouring the
web for look & feel examples and the wiki and c.l.t. for coding
examples. Anyway, it's now finished, but I'll keep your library in
mind for future needs.
Thanks,
Jeff
