I don't have a RPi, but I know it is just a glorified ARM computer with
terrible specs. But it is enough to run LXDE or other lightweight graphical
environments, which means tcl/tk is VERY likely to work. You could also
look up packages for Raspbian or other RPi-friendly distros and see
python-tk there, or various Python tutorials for the device:
