ClamTk was originally written using the Tk widget toolkit, for which it is named, but it was later re-written in Perl, using the GTK toolkit. The interface has evolved considerably over time and recent versions are quite different than early releases, adding features and changing the interface presentation. It was dual-licensed under the GNU General Public License version 1 or later, and the Artistic License.[2][6][7][8]
