Tcl-URL! - 1998/11/02

by Mark Roseman - 'DejaNews:'' [L1 ]

This week we feature several interesting newsgroup discussions, a call for feedback from tkTable users, and the announcement of the ultimate Tcl-wear chronology.

  • The periodic call for a smaller core resurfaces; most agree it would be a Good Thing, now how to make it happen? (thread [L2 ])
  • Bill Donovan pointed out an interesting thread on comp.ai about using Tcl as an AI language (thread [L3 ] old link:[L4 ])
  • There was a good discussion about how to do X session management in Tk (where apps save and restore their window positions) (thread [L5 ])
  • A simple question thats apparently pretty complicated - how do you kill a process in Windows from Tcl (thread [L6 ])
  • Jeff Hobbs is looking to add expressions to his excellent tkTable extension (woo hoo!) and is looking for feedback (see [L7 ])
  • Finally, Tom Poindexter has cataloged the myriad t-shirts and other Tcl/Tk goodies that have surfaced over the years http://www.nyx.net/~tpoindex/tcl.html
