You're unlikely to get anything satisfactory.  Tk doesn't do
right-to-left text layout, and it does character-at-a-time drawing which
means you won't get the proper linking between the characters.

I don't know if this bad news is out of date by now, but it certainly
applies to Tk 8.2 and 8.3 on Unix and Windows.

Here's some related advice from the tcl/tk wiki:

but you have to have the stomach to read tcl code.
