[R-gui] Some R-Tcl/Tk-BWidget newbie questions.

This is a modified repost of a post I did in r.general (think this is a
better place)
Dear list,
1) Does someone know why, in my below code, tkpack can hang (consuming
100% cpu)? It also hangs without the fill="both",expand=T. Then, if I
replace it by tkgrid, it works!
2) After replacing by tkgrid, I tried to add sticky="news", but that does
not help at all, notebook is not resized when the window is. (and it did
not help to add fill/expand to packing of tbw.algemeen/tab.algemeen etc.)
3) If I do not raise all of the tabs in the notebook, they are all
displayed on the first tab initially (also if I raise only once). As you
can see below, I found an ugly hack, but I would like to know why this
goes wrong and how to solve it.
Thanks very much,
JeeBee.

### --> The following line makes R hang with 100% cpu forever
#tkpack(tn <- tkwidget(tt, "NoteBook"), fill="both", expand=TRUE)
### --> This works, but not sticky="news",
### --> the notebook does not resize together with the window
tn <- tkwidget(tt, "NoteBook")
tkgrid(tn, sticky="news")

tkgrid(tkbutton(tt, text="GUI bijwerken",
command=function() verwerk.button("GUIBijwerken", tt)))
# FIXME: add cleanup handler?
#tkbind(tt, "<Destroy>", function() tkdestroy(tn))
### --> Don't understand this ... if I do the last "raise" only,
### --> then I see all tabs in the first tab, until I go to another
### --> tab and back. With all these "raises", it works
tcl(tn, "raise", "Instellingen")
tcl(tn, "raise", "Posten")
tcl(tn, "raise", "Relaties")
tcl(tn, "raise", "Algemeen")
}
gui.maak.tab <- function(tt) {
tkgrid(tklabel(tt, text="Instellingen"), sticky="news")
test.button <- tclVar("one two")
tkgrid(tkcheckbutton(tt,variable=test.button))
}
