[Jprogramming] Drawing program in J?

I'm planning to write a drawing program that needs to communicate with J.
Functionally, the programme is intended to be a tool for creating something
like UML diagrams (boxes, arrows, and some code generation).  Actually, the
form editor seems to have some of the functionality I need.

Ideally I'd like to be able to do it all in J, but it's unclear to me from
the form and openGL documentation how easy this would be.  For example,
would I be better off using, say, Tcl/Tk or Perl/Tk for the graphics and
communicating to the JE via sockets?

Any suggestions/advice would be appreciated.
