Fox Board Tcl
Anyone make a Fox board Linux [L1 ] implementation/port of Tcl, of any version?
Or: how to instruct the configure script to do a cross compile with gcc-cris (then I can give it a go easily, I have the whole devkit compile quickly and working) ? Yes I did it.

TV ´(sept 13 06)´ I found this page back recentlly, sent Giovanni a mail, and received these files from him
FoxTclSmall.tar [http://www.theover.org/Wiki/FoxTclSmall.tar] , libm.so.6 [http://www.theover.org/Wiki/libm.so.6] , lcd.tcl [http://www.theover.org/Wiki/lcd.tcl] , libtio.so [http://www.theover.org/Wiki/libtio.so].
I stripped the libs, used manual tar (on the fedora core 4/64 devstation I used also to built the whole fox-linux with from source), to get the /var/tcl bin and lib directories with stripped libs, which I put in the ramdisk. I put tclsh8.4 in /tmp (also ramdisk), and I could run tcl!
To use tcl as a cgi script for the fox internal web server, I put this script in /usr/html/local/cgi-bin/t.cgi :
#!/bin/sh # \ exec /tmp/tclsh8.4 "$0" "$@" puts stdout "Content-type: text/html\n" puts stdout "<HTML>" # puts stdout "[expr $env(QUERY_STRING)]" set slave [interp create -safe] puts $env(QUERY_STRING) puts "<br>" puts [$slave eval "expr $env(QUERY_STRING)"] puts stdout "</HTML>" exit
(Note the first line must NOT have a space as first character)
entering a url with a expr syntax formula after the ? after following the guidelines from acmesystems [L2 ] gives within a second or so:
http://yourfoxboard/cgi-bin/t.cgi?2+sin(33.2) ==> 2+sin(33.2) 2.97734251239
great, I think.
tv For the moment, I installed a 64Meg usb memory stick on the board, which has its own fstab entry, so is available after boot at /mnt/1, and I copied the lib and bin from the above tar file to /mnt/1 . then I
ln -s /mnt/1 /var/tcl
and change the tcl calling commandin the web script above to
exec /var/tcl/bin/tclsh8.4 "$0" "$@"
and the webserver runs the tcl script fine, and within a second.
