Yesterday, though, I had a weird first experience when it opened a very attractive tcl/tk interface which displayed no text of any kind. I tried fiddling with the two menus you provide, bit still no success. I finally just gave up. When I tried gitk again today -- it was magic! All the kernel tree appeared just as (I suppose) you intended. As far as I know, I did nothing to change anything since yesterday. Can you venture a guess why I had sucess today and failure yesterday? Does gitk perhaps depend on a generated database of some kind before it will work properly?
