'''Installation as Tcl-module'''

Put the directory with the source code somewhere in a directory like /home/username/tcl/shtmlview/shtmlview-1.0.0.tm - in your Tcl code you would now have to write:

======
 tcl::tm::path add /home/username/tcl
 package require shtmlview::shtmlview
======

'''Installation as Tcl package'''

Just the usual copy of the shtmlview folder into your package path.

See http://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/mittelmark/shtmlview/blob/master/shtmlview/shtmlview.html%|%manual page%|% on github for information of installation and usage. Below some example usage for creating a standalone script for viewing local HTML files.

'''Example'''
======
tcl::tm::path add /home/username/tcl
package require shtmlview::shtmlview
if {[info exists argv0] && $argv0 eq [info script]} {
    if {[llength $argv] == 1 && [file exists [lindex $argv 0]]} {
       wm title . "shtmlview widget demo"
       set help [::shtmlview::shtmlview .help \
                  -tablesupport true -home [lindex $argv 0]]
       $help browse [lindex $argv 0] 
       pack $help -side top -fill both -expand true
 } else {
    puts "Usage: $argv0 htmlfile"
    exit 0
