** Description **

TclBin allows access to binary data from Tcl, including a paradigm for
pointers, structures, etc.  Latest version can be built as a Tcl 7.6
dynamically loadable extension.  A sample geturl script is included.

While this version compiles and passes all tests under Tcl 8, it
doesn't take advantage of the new Tcl objects.
