Is an animated display of an internal combustion engine. There are 3 different types of engines that are selectable by holding down the mouse button. The 3 different types are Flat4, Inline4 and V6. The default is the Inline4. This program uses 3 animated gif images from an article on HowStuffWorks.com to display then engine in motion. The program also figures out the maximum frame rate for the images.---- <<inlinehtml>> <iframe height="400" width="500" src="https://cloudtk.tcl-lang.org/cloudtk/VNC?session=new&Tk=tkEngine" allowfullscreen></iframe> <<inlinehtml>> ---- [http://www.interq.or.jp/japan/s-imai/tcltk/images/tkengine11.gif] Version 1.1 is available here [http://www.interq.or.jp/japan/s-imai/tcltk/download/tkengine11.zip]. # TkEngine Program V1.1 # by Satoshi Imai # 1.1, 07-Jul-2002 modified by Fuhito Suguri # http://www.interq.or.jp/japan/s-imai/tcltk/tkengine.html # Based on a article by Marshall Brain @ HowStuffWorks.com # http://www.howstuffworks.com/engine2.htm The Homepage for tkEngine[http://www.interq.or.jp/japan/s-imai/tcltk/tkengine.html] is in japanese but a translated version is available through bablefish here [http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/urltrurl?lp=ja_en&url=http://www.interq.or.jp/japan/s-imai/tcltk/tkengine.html]. ---- [MPJ] A reformatted version with the frame/sec in the title bar and scale to fit the [PocketPC] is available here [http://mywebpages.comcast.net/jakeforce/iTkEngine.tcl]. Note you still need the 3 images from the above version: flat4.gif, inline4.gif, v6.gif. Here are the shots of it running on my Dell Axim (arm 400Mhz w/ PocketPC 2002) [http://mywebpages.comcast.net/jakeforce/tkengine_off.jpg] : [http://mywebpages.comcast.net/jakeforce/tkengine_on.jpg] ''Update'' (25-09-03): The same code and the same Dell Axim but using the updated PocketPC 2003 edition and the 8.4.4 port of TclTk. I now get a frame rate of 5 fps vs 3 fps on the 2002 (and its noticeable on other TclTk apps too). [http://mywebpages.comcast.net/jakeforce/tkengine2003.jpg] And here a picture of this code running on my desktop (1GHz ~ notice the difference in frame rates vs the PocketPC).
