There is no perl integration as far as I know. (Note, there are perl
extensions that provide access to the CMU SNMP library - see the perl
page at http://www.perl.com for more details).
There are actually two issues involved:
1. We can try to make the scotty extension a lot more independend from
Tcl/Tk to simplify integration into other languages (Perl, Python,
...)
2. We can work on getting the scotty Tcl extension running on non-Unix
platforms.
Both things are nice to have. However, doing both together makes
things complicated because the port to a new platform (e.g. Windows)
can't make use of the underlying Tcl port as this would conflict with
ports to other languages. We would have to re-invent the wheel here or
at least provide various wrappers.
My short-term goal is to work on option 2. However, if someone wants
to spend his/her time to integrate our sources with Perl, Python,
Java, ... just get in contact with me so that we can figure out how
the scotty sources can be changes to make things easier.
