The \class{Tk} class is instantiated without arguments.
This creates a toplevel widget of Tk which usually is the main window
of an appliation. Each instance has its own associated Tcl interpreter.

+The \function{Tcl} function is a factory function which creates an object
+much like that created by the \class{Tk} class, except that it does not
+initialize the Tk subsystem. This is most often useful when driving the Tcl
+interpreter in an environment where one doesn't want to create extraneous
+toplevel windows, or where one cannot (i.e. Unix/Linux systems without an X
+server). An object created by the \function{Tcl} object can have a Toplevel
+window created (and the Tk subsystem initialized) by calling its
+\method{loadtk} method.
