I'm a tcl/tk newbie. I'm still trying to learn the tcl way of programming which is kind of different to what I'm used to.

I'm now working on a function/procedure that would convert NUMBERS TO WORDS. I'll put the link here as soon as it is done.

CAU - Have you seen these : Bag of number/time spellers ?

Arlie - It looks similar to what I'm planning to work on.

Arlie - I tried my hands on Gadgets and found it very interesting but I was not successfull in running the shorter version of Larry Smith.

 proc gadget { unused type methods } {
  set typeproc {
    set typeproc {
      upvar @var self
      @type self $method $args
    }
    upvar $var self
    if { "$method" == "" } {
      return $self
    }
    switch $method {
      @methods
    }
    regsub @var $typeproc $var typeproc
    proc $var { { method "" } args } $typeproc
  }
  regsub @type $typeproc $type typeproc
  regsub @methods $typeproc $methods typeproc
  proc $type { var method args } $typeproc
 }

Running the test code I got this output:

  1 % number N = 1.5
  2 % Array A
  wrong # args: should be "Array var method args"
  3 % List L = {foo bar}
  4 % N = [N] * $N  
  5 % set A(cat) Katze
  Katze
  6 % A names 
  wrong # args: should be "Array var method args"
  7 % L += grill
  8 % L = [L sort]
  9 % puts "[L] has [L length] elements, second is [L @ 1]"
  {} has  elements, second is 
  10 % 
  10 %  File F = "c:/gadget.tcl"
  11 % int i = 1
  12 % while {[F >> line]} {
  >     puts [i]:$line
  >     i ++
  >  }
  variable "var" already exists
  13 %  F close
  14 % 

Can anyone help me on this?
