Purpose: Provide a "focal point" for people searching for Tcl extensions and applications
Policy: If you want to add an extension or an application, simply select the proper category, add the name and a short description and include a link as to where it can be found.
(AM, I created this page, 26 september 2006, because I realised that the Wiki is, with all its flaws, disorder and general unstructuredness a wonderful place that everybody can contribute to. It is very easy to add or correct information, the infrastructure to do this is all there. So, this page may not be the best repository the Tcl community can wish for, it is at least an easy one to maintain!)
