The Tk implementation for Chicken is based on scheme_wish, a highly portable interface between Scheme and Tcl/Tk written by Sven Hartrumpf 1997-1998. This interface communicates with Tk by a named input pipe and a named output pipe.

The communication consists of inputting a command to Tcl/Tk and reading a message from Tcl/Tk.

The interface Chicken/Tk implements a more comfortable connection. This is done by Chicken-specific procedures so that it is less portable but easier to use.
