X? Python + glade is used a lot, Perl-GTK is also popular. Or you
write it in C or C++ (kde). Perhaps even java. I haven't seen much
use of tcl/tk for this in years.

(FWIW, we had a few tcl/tk in Red Hat Linux a couple of years
ago. All the ones we made are gone, and the ones in most apps as well)
