Is it easy to learn Tcl/Tk as a C hacker? Also can I design beautiful looking widgets with it? I mean like things that can be done with DHTML for a browser ?

I liked Enso's interface ... can that type of interface be designed using Tcl/Tk ?

1) Tcl/Tk is very very easy to learn (and to embed in C applications)

2) I've never implemented my own widgets but plenty of people have, check out BLT as an example

3) I don't know what Enso is I'm afraid.

OOPS I forgot to give the link. It is a startup by Aza Raskin and his friends. The link is http://www.humanized.com Even if you don't use it do check out the demo. It's nice.
