I have released version 0.2.0.4 of the primitive dll caller. The latest
not so primitive version features

::dll::call     for calling routines inside a specified dll
::dll::callback for defining callback tcl procs
::dll::declare  for defining a tcl proc alias to a specified dll routine
::dll::setoffs  for setting/getting various kinds of values from an
                 indirection specification
::dll::int2str  a convenience function for converting pointers to tcl
                 strings
::dll::makeabspath      a convenience function for getting absolute
                         paths from (doesn't handle ~ yet).

I have tested with tcl8.0p2 + Win95B & Linux 2.0.34 ELF (gcc) and it all
seems to work. Good luck :)

The Tcl/Tk Consortium announces a new organization for
	     Tcl/Tk vendors and developers

New Members and Official Vendors Are Welcomed

    BOSTON, Massachusetts, June 17, 1998--The Tcl/Tk Consortium, a
    non-profit organization, announced today at the Usenix Association
    meeting in New Orleans that it is now accepting sponsors for its
    publicity and software projects which encourage the use of Tcl/Tk and
    support companies providing Tcl/Tk products and services.

   About Tcl/Tk

    Tcl is the Tool Command Language and Tk is its accompanying toolkit.
    Tcl is a scripting language which together with Tk creates a powerful
    programming environment for building graphical interfaces and
    applications that will run on all major platforms.

    Tcl/Tk enables the user to write one program that will run
    cross-platform with a native look-and-feel on UNIX, Windows 95/NT and
    Macintosh systems. Java beans can be added, as can customized C code,
    so users never hit the "wall" that they may find in other packages.
    Don Libes, creator of Expect, says that Tcl/Tk can "create GUIs more
    quickly than any other tool and which are 10 times more flexible in
    1/10 the time. Moreover, it can glue existing software together more
    easily than any other tool."

    Programs may be embedded in Web pages to create interactive content
    for Web sites. "The advantage of Tcl/Tk," says Michael McLennan,
    President of the Tcl/Tk Consortium, "is the fact that it will add
    flexibility to any other software."

    Tcl/Tk is a free program and may be downloaded from a number of sites.
    The Tcl/Tk Consortium is the primary site for finding Tcl/Tk sites,
    services, and widgets.

   About the Tcl/Tk Consortium

    The Tcl/Tk Consortium was founded this year to publicize and encourage
    the further development of Tcl products and services and to assist
    developers in their endeavors. In addition, the Consortium provides a
    single complete site where Tcl/Tk users can find the most up-to-date
    information about widgets, books, services, and other news related to
    the language.

    The individual and corporate members of the Tcl/Tk Consortium are
    committed to Tcl/Tk and ensuring its future. The Consortium works to
    realize its vision through the following activities:
      * advertising
      * distributing ready-to-run copies of Tcl/Tk and its extensions
      * helping companies market their Tcl/Tk products and services
      * supporting existing user groups and encouraging the formation of
        new groups
      * collecting and organizing online information

    With this in mind, the Consortium has created a number of programs to
    support these activities.

   Membership

    Corporations and individuals are invited to join the Tcl/Tk Consortium
    to further sponsor the organization. In addition to supporting the
    Consortium, membership benefits include votes in all ballots, CD-ROM
    releases, participation in the Tcl Dollars program which entitles
    members to discounts from Official Vendors, and unlimited access to
    the Members Only portion of the web site.

    Corporate sponsorship categories, suitable for large companies and
    organizations with a strong interest in Tcl/Tk development include:
      * Platinum Level $50,000/year, minimum 3 years
      * Gold Level $25,000/year, minimum 3 years
      * Standard Level $10,000/year, minimum 3 years

    Small companies and departments within large organizations may join at
    the Supporters level for $5,000/year. Individuals are also welcome to
    join at the Individual rate of $500/year.

    Membership is vital in showing that Tcl/Tk is well-supported by those
    who provide products and services that use this technology in order to
    encourage more developers will make use of this unique and effective
    language and its accompanying toolkit.

   Official Vendors Program

    The official vendors program was created to encourage economic growth
    within the Tcl/Tk community. The program costs nothing to join and is
    open to non-members as well as members of the Consortium. As Official
    Vendors, companies provide some discount on products or services to
    those members of the Consortium who have Tcl Dollars to spend. This
    might be anything from 15% of the cost of a product or training to
    acceptance of full payment in Tcl Dollars. The Tcl Dollars that
    vendors collect can be used the following year towards membership
    fees, so if a company has a $5,000 supporting membership and collects
    $5,000 in Tcl Dollars, supporting membership is free for the following
    year.

    The program encourages Tcl/Tk vendors and members in several ways.
    Official Vendors are advertised on the Consortiums web site and
    members are more likely to give these companies their business as they
    receive a discount. In addition, Tcl Dollars collected can be used
    towards membership fees.

    The individual and corporate members of the Tcl/Tk Consortium are
    committed to Tcl/Tk and ensuring its future.

Hi,

I've released a new version of QuickTimeTcl, 2.1.0 today.  The only change
from 2.0.2 is that now you can optionally use QuickTime Movie controllers
with your movies.  This is a good thing if you say have a QTVR movie which
up till now has been static.  It also is a good UI for movies which stops
you from having to write your own in Tcl/Tk.

The downside to using a controller is that any events which occur in the
movie disapper into the movie controller.  So, you choice is, good UI and
more movies work, but, less control, or, do it all yourself with full
control.

Great thanks go to Jim Ingham and Ray Johnson for their hints as to what
was necessary to get controllers to work with Mac Tcl/Tk.

Two people have stepped forward to help with the Windows port so that
should happen soon.  Thanks.

QuickTimeTcl is at http://homepage.iprolink.ch/~bioneel/beo/homepage.html.

cheers

bruce

Hi All!

New version 1.2.4 of Paradigm Visual Make!

I have volunteered to develop and maintain this software.  Please send
comments, suggestions, questions, and bug reports to dminer@...

You can find new versions of the software at:

      http://www.nyx.net/~dminer/pvm

What's New?
-----------
Version 1.2.4

      integrated small unreleased changes from Andrew
      quick change to the toolbar to look like Win 97 apps
      fixed scrollbars positioning
      added simple undo/redo (unlimited, still alpha)

What is it
----------

PVM is software development environment, written in pure Tcl/Tk which
can be adjusted to different programming languages and source file
types.

It incorporates a text editor, simple software project (makefile)
editor and enables you to develop and build your software projects from
within single program. And for debugging your application, it can start
your favorite external debugger.

It also enables you to execute almost any external program (e.g. "diff"
or "dircmp") and capture its output into a specialised PVM text
window.

It looks like a MS Windows MDI application and has highly
reconfigurable visual appearance.

A new version of the Win32 DLL caller is available at
http://www.jessikat.demon.co.uk/

I have added a declare command for improved efficiency. The command creates
a directly callable proc interface to the dll routine. Arguments with
supplied values at declare time are factored out as constants. This
predeclare idea was forced on me by Earl Johnson who showed it could be
more efficient.

Many people requested a binary distribution for Windows
95/NT. Here it is......  See below :-)

The plus- patches consist of the following enhancements:
- tcl2c utility, and support to create your own standalone
   executables
- Tk is now a normal package, which can be dynamically loaded
   by tclsh, using "package require Tk".
- All tests are available as packages.
- Jeffrey Hobbs' TkCon console (version 1.1) is the standard
   console for tclsh.
- many bug-fixes from Scriptics' patch resource.

Available are the following files:

ftp://ftp.nici.kun.nl/pub/tkpvm/tcl81a2plus.exe (3308848 bytes)   NEW
    Self-extracting binary distribution of a modified Tcl/Tk8.1a2 (with
    plus-patch, dash-patch, img-patch and elide.patch already applied)
ftp://ftp.nici.kun.nl/pub/tkpvm/tcl8.1a2plus.patch.gz (153984 bytes)
    plus-patch for Tcl8.1a2.

    Complete distribution of Tcl8.1a2+ (with plus-patch already applied)
ftp://ftp.nici.kun.nl/pub/tkpvm/tcl81a2plus.zip (3268454 bytes)

    Complete distribution of Tk8.1a2+ (with plus-patch, dash-patch,
    img-patch and elide.patch already applied)
ftp://ftp.nici.kun.nl/pub/tkpvm/tk81a2plus.zip (2609088 bytes)
    The same as tk8.1a2plus.tar.gz, only in a different format.

More information can be found at:
     http://home.wxs.nl/~nijtmans/plus.html

IMPORTANT!!!!

Remember, this is an alpha release, and it is also the first release of
a self-extracting executable for Windows 95/NT. It is only tested with
Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0, but it should be not so difficult to get it
running with Borland as well.

KNOWN BUGS

The binary distribution for Windows runs, but is not yet complete. The
README and the help-file are the same as from the original distribution,
so they don't mention anything about the enhancements. Further on,
everything is compiled with MSVC 5.0++, so I wouln't be surprised if
there are problems with other compilers. In that case, you better
apply the patches by yourself, or download the full distribution in
zip-format.

Any feedback is welcome.

Hi everybody: here is a new version of moodss.

Check it out! (at least the screenshot at
http://www.mygale.org/~jfontain/moodss3.jpg :).

### CHANGES ###

*** version 3.6 ***
pie charts now resize nicely (slices always leave room for labels as
   BLT charts do)
uses stooop 3.6 and tkpiechart 5.2
drag circle cursor is no longer changed to double arrow when dragging
across
   right side of a table
column resizing cursor no longer sticks in column title labels
dragging now possible only from selected cell or viewer element label
in graphs, flat 0 lines are now visible even with other lines in the
graph
graphs now handle void value with plot discontinuities
graph background is now black for better clarity
graph start plotting only when fed new values (no more initial flat
lines)

### README ###

This is moodss (Modular Object Oriented Dynamic SpreadSheet) version
3.6. Moodss is implemented in the great Tcl language (requires at
least versions 8.0 of Tcl and Tk, for UNIX or Windows).

Moodss is a modular application. It displays data described and
updated in one or more independent modules loaded when the application
is started. Data is originally displayed in tables. Graphical views
(graph, bar or pie charts) can be created from any number of table
cells through a simple drag'n'drop operation. Table rows can be sorted
in increasing or decreasing order by selecting any column.

Since module data access is entirely customizable (through C code,
Tcl, HTTP, ...) and since several modules can be loaded at once,
applications for moodss become limitless. For example, comparing a
remote database server CPU load and a network load from a probe on the
same graph becomes possible.

Apart from a sample module with random data, ps, cpustats and memstats
modules for Linux are included as examples
(running "wish moodss ps cpustats memstats" mimics the "top"
application with a graphic edge). Module contibutions are of course
welcomed and will be included in my home page.

Thorough help is provided through menus, widget tips, a message area,
a module help window and a global help window with a complete HTML
documentation.

One or more module names are passed as command line parameters. The
moodss core then loads the modules and starts displaying their data in
one or more tables, which are then updated at a user selectable
frequency.

The module code is the link between the moodss core and the data to be
displayed. All the specific code is kept in the module package. Moodss
goal is to become a complete and generic way of monitoring data.

Development of moodss is continuing and as more features are added in
future versions, backward module code compatibility will be maintained.

I cannot thank the authors of tkTable, BLT (official and unofficial)
and the HTML library enough for their great work.

In order to run moodss, you need to install the following packages:
obviously Tcl/Tk 8.0 or 8.1 at (or at a mirror near you)
http://sunscript.sun.com/ or
http://www.scriptics.com/
the tkTable widget at:
ftp://ftp.cs.uoregon.edu/pub/tcl/tkTable/tkTable2.00.tar.gz
and the BLT library at:
ftp://ftp.tcltk.com/pub/blt/BLT2.4a.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/tcl/sorted/devel/blt8.0-unoff.tgz
(see the INSTALL file for complete instructions, for UNIX and also
Windows platforms).

Whether you like it (or hate it), please let me know. I would like to
hear about bugs and improvements you would like to see. I will correct
the bugs quickly, especially if you send me a test script (module code
with a data trace would be best).

Hi everybody: here is a new version of tkpiechart.

### CHANGES ###

*** version 5.2 ***
pie -title option now works again
requires stooop version 3.6 instead of never released 3.5.2

### README ###

Some people have asked for a Tcl/Tk pie utility: so here is my little
implementation with Tcl, not as an extension.

This is version 5.2. It was tested with Tcl8.0/Tk8.0, Tcl8.1/Tk8.1 and
the netscape plug-in 2.0, on both Linux and Windows platforms (it
should work on all Tcl/Tk supported platforms).

It is object oriented using the stooop (Simple Tcl Only Object
Oriented Programming) extension (version 3.6 or above, tcl file
included).

If you have netscape with the Tcl plug-in installed, just Open File...
demo.tcl and voila!

Run the demo script to see what it looks like, read the man pages to
understand how to use it.

Whether you like it (or hate it), please let me know. I would like to
hear about bugs and improvements you would like to see. I will correct
the bugs quickly, especially if you send me a test script.

If you find a bug in the Tcl code and correct it yourself, please
email the modified code so I can include it in the next release. The
same goes for improvements.

Hello world,

I hereby announce autodoc 2.0.
It is
	 An application to convert specially formatted documentation
	 embedded into tcl code into a cross-referenced set of
	 HTML pages describing this code.

Changes from 1.0
* **requires** tcl 8.x

* Updated to the changes made in Pool (1.0 -> 2.0, OO kernel).

* Factored out the HTML generating part and inserted API allowing other
	 generators in the future (text, SGML, ...)

* Updated HTML generator to changes between cgi 0.4 and 0.7
	 (cgi_anchor_name semantics changed). Cannot be used with cgi 0.4
	 anymore, at least 0.7 is required.

* Simplified interface between autodoc and '.doc' and '.predoc' files.

* Changes in recognized commands:

	 <> Replaced @member/@m with @var/@v.
		 Still recognizes the old forms and marks them as errors.

* Changes in cross referencing

	 <> Added <x ..> as shortcut of <xref ..>.
	 <> Added <v ..> and <var ..> to allow references to member
		 variables.
	 <> Added <i ..> and <img ..> to allow references to images
		 (as defined in '.predoc' files).
	 <> Enhanced method, option and variable references to allow
		 references without a classname. The class enclosing the
		 reference is automatically used.
	 <> Changed the separator character used by method, option and
		 variable references from '/' to ':'. Still recognizes the
		 old forms and marks them as errors.
	 <> Removed <e ..> and <ext>, recognizes <d ..> and <dep ..>
		 instead (external DEPendencies). Still recognizes the old
		 forms and marks them as errors.

The distribution can be found at

Fellow Tcl/Tk users,

I have uploaded TDebug-1.7.tar.gz to

ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/tcl/sorted/devel/TDebug-1.7.tar.gz
or
http://www.neosoft.com/tcl/ftparchive/sorted/devel/TDebug-1.7.tar.gz

This version has a few minor enhancements and new features.
New since version 1.6 (From David Dougherty)

     If tix is available a tixPanedWindow is drawn between the listing
and the variable window providing much better control over the display.
     Add control to the Debugger Variable menu to control whether
variable values are wrapped in the widget or not also controlled by the
wrapvars variable.
     Added searching to the variable display, regular expression is
applied to the variables and values on subsequent display.

New since version 1.5 (From David Dougherty)

     Added new color control for more consistent display across
application.
     Added find field for procedure name searches, activated by <Return>.
     Fixed a bug in breakpoint routine caused by embedded []{}
characters.         It's still not perfect but much better.
     README is now solely maintained in HTML (this file).


For those of you that would like more information on TDebug:

TDebug is a Tcl debugger that uses a different approach other debuggers
I've seen for Tcl/Tk. Its concept is similar to the emacs-lisp debugger
`edebug'.

TDebug is solely based on Tcl/Tk, there is no C-code, which makes it
very easy to install. It works by parsing and redefining Tcl/Tk-procs,
inserting calls to `td_eval' at certain points, which takes care of the
display, stepping, breakpoints, variables etc.

TDebug was written by Gregor Schmid, David Dougherty is the current
maintainer.

Hi everybody: here is a new version of tkpiechart.

### CHANGES ###

*** version 5.1 ***
replaced pie -scale option by -height and -width options
pie slices are now resized as slices are deleted or added to leave
   room for the labeler labels, so that specified pie width and height
   are kept constant
added -startandextent option for slice
removed coordinates from the slice constructor parameters
added -widestvaluetext to piePeripheralLabeller class
renamed pieGraphics tag to pieSlices

### README ###

Some people have asked for a Tcl/Tk pie utility: so here is my little
implementation with Tcl, not as an extension.

This is version 5.1. It was tested with Tcl8.0/Tk8.0, Tcl8.1/Tk8.1 and
the netscape plug-in 2.0, on both Linux and Windows platforms (it
should work on all Tcl/Tk supported platforms).

It is object oriented using the stooop (Simple Tcl Only Object
Oriented Programming) extension (version 3.5.2 or above, tcl file
included).

If you have netscape with the Tcl plug-in installed, just Open File...
demo.tcl and voila!

Run the demo script to see what it looks like, read the man pages to
understand how to use it.

Whether you like it (or hate it), please let me know. I would like to
hear about bugs and improvements you would like to see. I will correct
the bugs quickly, especially if you send me a test script.

If you find a bug in the Tcl code and correct it yourself, please

Hi everybody: here is a new version of stooop:

### CHANGES ###

*** version 3.6 ***
the switched package is now installed by default (see the INSTALL
   if you do not want to use it)
parameter passing by reference now works with virtual declarations


### README ###

This is stooop (a Simple Tcl Only Object Oriented Programming scheme)
version 3.6. Stooop is implemented in a single sourceable file and
uses simple techniques to provide object orientation to the great Tcl
language.

If you know C++ or Java, stooop will be easy to use for you. Using the
familiar class, new, delete and virtual keywords and a few coding
conventions, you can start object oriented Tcl code right away, as the
following simple example shows:


source stooop.tcl
namespace import stooop::*

class circle {
     proc circle {this canvas diameter} {
         set circle::($this,diameter) $diameter
         set circle::($this,canvas) $canvas
         set circle::($this,id) [$canvas create oval 0 0 $diameter
$diameter]
     }
     proc ~circle {this} {
         $circle::($this,canvas) delete $circle::($this,id)
     }
     proc move {this x y} {
         $circle::($this,canvas) move $circle::($this,id) $x $y
     }
}

pack [canvas .canvas]
set c [new circle .canvas 50]
update; after 1000
circle::move $c 10 10
update; after 1000
delete $c


Stooop supports single and multiple inheritance, data encapsulation
(all member data is public), dynamic binding, nested classes, object
copy, runtime type identification, optional runtime procedure and data
access checking as well as tracing.

As stooop is entirely written in Tcl, it will run on all Tcl supported
platforms, including Windows and the Mac Intosh, if you have Tcl
version 8.0 or 8.1.

The class, new, delete, virtual and classof commands are implemented
as Tcl procedures.

Stooop was implemented with a constant concern for performance. Member
data is stored in Tcl associative arrays, which are best for random
data access. Classes are implemented as namespaces to improve
encapsulation and reduce naming interferences. Object oriented helper
code is kept as small and as efficient as possible. Typically, only a
couple of Tcl lines are added to a member procedure
definition. Program startup time will be slightly increased due to
some class and member procedures preprocessing, but runtime overhead
is kept to a strict minimum. Use of object oriented techniques may
actually improve the performance of your code.

A full HTML documentation, simple demonstration script, graphical
demonstration with composite pattern and test files are provided. You
may also run the test suite and look at the test scripts for
examples. There is also a utility for creating packages (in the Tcl
sense) from stooop compatible class files.

There is a companion package to stooop: scwoop (a Simple Composite
Widget Object Oriented Package). Scwoop is implemented in a single
sourceable file and uses simple techniques to provide composite widget
(also known as mega widget) support to the great Tk widget library,
and is compatible with the Tcl web browser plug-in. Moodss (a Modular
Object Oriented Dynamic SpreadSheet) implemented with stooop, scwoop,
tkTable and BLT is also available on my website.

Whether you like it (or hate it), please let me know. I would like to
hear about bugs and improvements you would like to see. I will correct
the bugs quickly, especially if you send me a test script.

A new release of the MetaKit structured data storage interface to Tcl.

The main changes are:
	 - a new mk::select command to select, search, and sort views
	 - streaming to/from a Tcl channel is now supported (binary mode)
	 - builds for Linux, Windows, and Macintosh are now all for 0.7

Note: the new select command supports range selections, regexp matching,
and keyword searches (word-based case-independent prefix matching).

The Windows and Mac downloads include ready-made shared libraries, see:
	 http://www.equi4.com/metakit/info/README-Tcl.html
The above link also describes the mk::... commands defined by mk4tcl.

The Linux download includes the Tcl interface source w/autoconf, and
requires the MetaKit 1.8.3 shared library, available as tar and as RPM:
	 http://www.equi4.com/metakit/info/README-Linux.html

This code is still "beta-quality".  When ready for production use, it
will be released as version 1.0 (under the same terms as this release).

help drive the active growth and dynamic culture of Scriptics Corporation.

Scriptics will officially open the doors of its Training department the
week of June 22nd, with our first two courses:  "Building GUI
Applications with Tcl/Tk" (June 22 - 24), and "Effective Programming in
Tcl/Tk" (June 25 - 26)! These courses will be given in Palo Alto,
California.  We will repeat these courses at the same location
during the week of July 13 through 17.  We also plan to offer these
course at additional locations in the near future.

If you are a novice or beginning Tcl/Tk user, "Building GUI
Applications" is right for you; if you are a more advanced Tcl/Tk user,
or have gone through our first course, "Effective Programming" will be
a great benefit.  Each student is provided with a laptop computer during
the course so they can learn in a hands-on environment and given a
book and extensive course notes to take home.

If you are interested in registering for these courses, please go to
our web site, http://www.scriptics.com/training.  Take advantage and
register early! We have to limit each class to 20 students.

If you are interested in our Tcl/Tk training, but want to sign up for
different locations, corporate on-site classes, and/or later dates,
please also go to our web site and fill out our Training Needs Survey,
http://www.scriptics.com/training/survey.html, so that we can plan how
to meet your needs. We will be offering these first two courses on a
regular basis, and plan to develop additional courses as well on such
topics as object-oriented programming with [incr Tcl], Web
programming, and C/C++ programming for Tcl extensions.

Bonus offer: If you fill out our training survey you will be given
priority notification of new courses.  This will let you register early
for courses and increase your chances of getting your first choice.

We are looking forward to meeting you in the classroom.
Happy Tcl programming!

The Scriptics Team

This summer Scriptics is going to mount a major PR campaign to raise
the level of visibility of scripting in general and Tcl in particular.
The campaign will have greatest impact if we can point to 3-5 success
stories.  We already know of hundreds of success stories, but almost
all of these are in the high-tech sector, which doesn't count for much
among the press and analysts (a high-tech company adopting a new
technical solution isn't hot news).

I'm writing to see if you can help us identify success stories outside
the technical sector.  The ideal story will involve a large, very
conservative, company (banks, utilities, and insurance companies are
great examples) doing mission-critical things with Tcl and reaping
large benefits from it.  We'll need for people from the company to talk
with our PR firm to work up the story, and then be available to talk
with the press and analysts when the story breaks.  Potentially this
can provide good publicity for the companies in addition to helping Tcl.

If you know of a company that might be able to provide a nice success
story, or, even better, if you work for such a company, please send
me email.

Thanks in advance for the help.  We hope that this publicity will help
everyone in the community by raising the general level of appreciation
for Tcl.

Student GUI Programmer Position Available

We are hiring a student to help us write the code for an innovative
GUI.

The system will be developed using Tcl/Tk. Knowledge of Unix is
required. Knowledge of C is desired.  This is a good chance for a
student to participate in an advanced research project dealing with
GUI design, implementation and testing.  The student will be working
directly with the scientists designing the system.

The kind of experience we are looking for includes:

   - Programming ability in Tcl/Tk, some C.
   - Familiarity with UNIX, particularly Solaris
   - Ability to write reliable, maintainable code
   - Ability to diagnose and analyze problems
   - Demonstrated ability to learn new skills
   - Good communications skills
   - We would prefer a student at Rutgers University

These are areas that we would like applicants to show abilities but we
will look at resumes for anyone who has strong Tcl/Tk experience.

Wages would depend on experience.

Hours: About 40 hrs. per week during the Summer.

Please submit resumes by June 1, 1998 to Jose Perez-Carballo
(carballo@...).  E-mail submissions should be
formatted in rtf or ASCII text.   Examples of your tcl code would help.
(We do not check this group, so please send mail directly)

A new version of the Tcl/Tk quick reference guide is available at:

    ftp://ftp.slac.stanford.edu/software/TkMail/tkref-8.0.2.tar.gz

	 2) remove -channel option for images
	 3) added missing -menu option to toplevel widget
	 4) more details on standard -cursor option


DESCRIPTION
===========
The Tcl/Tk Reference Guide is a typeset quick reference guide to John

It contains a concise description of (almost) all Tcl/Tk statements,
variables and lots of other useful information. The Guide is based on
Tcl version 8.0 and Tk 8.0.

Perl 5 is required to format the included source Postscript for proper
printing.

Hi,
   I've uploaded SampleExtension 1.0 to
http://homepage.iprolink.ch/~bioneel/beo/homepage.html.  This is a
very very very simple MacOS PPC extension who's purpose in life is to
give you the bits so that you can get started writing Tcl or Tk
extension for MacOS.  Basically if you download the MacOS Tcl/Tk 8.0p2
binary distribution and this you should be able to build Tcl
extensions.  To get started you'll need:

1.  The MacOS Tcl/Tk 8.0p2 binary distribution.
2.  SampleExtension-1.0
3.  A MacOS PPC computer.
4.  CodeWarrior Pro 2 or Pro 3.  The Lite and/or Discover versions
won't work because this is PPC only.

   Please report problems to beoneel@...

cheers!
