Arnulf P. Wiedemann
I am living in a little village in the south of Germany near Augsburg (Bavaria)
I have more than 30 years of programming behind me using languages like: Algol60, Pascal, BCPL, CPM-80, C, C++, Icon, Java, Tcl and also awk, sed, sh-scripts ...
After all the years I like mostly to program in Tcl/Tk
Programming with Tcl/Tk since 1995.
I have been and am using Tcl/Tk and Itcl in commercial applications in the company I am working for, mostly for client server applications (client on windows, server Linux/Unix protocol http using apache server and rivet, with oracle and mysql databases).
At home I am using Tcl/Tk and Itcl for doing a lot of stuff on my computers for example a GUI for administrating my CD's in a mysql database using ID3 tags or making a selection on that database and send that to xmms for playing etc. That was before I found snackamp.
Projects:
- tclurtp the low level part of tcluno [L1 ] an uno interface for OpenOffice.org written in pure Tcl.
Work in progress:
- itcl-ng a reimplementation of Itcl based on tclOO, trying to make that an extension using only stubs interfaces to the Tcl core. 2008-12-11 beta version released [L2 ]
- ntkWidget a reimplementation of NexTk based on itcl-ng
- tclGL a Tcl wrapper for OpenGL gl* functions generated mostly from GL/gl.h by a Tcl script
- tclGLMWFW a Tcl wrapper for GLFW but with multiple windows
- ToW Tcl on WebFreeWay (called ATWF later on) collecting ideas for a Tcl based web framework. Maybe it will be called TRAX (Tcl's Rapid webAccess eXtension). There are plans to start the implementation as a "fun" project. 2010-03-05: The start of an implementation of such a tool can be found here: [L3 ]
- Reporting Tools with Tcl some tools written with itcl-ng to allow easy building of GUI's for reports to be shown as web pages or in a client
- itclwidgets a reimplementation of Iwidgets using itcl-ng (and Tk) without using itk
- ATWF A Tcl Web Framework written with itcl-ng using a lot of ideas from php Zend Framework
- incr Tcl in Javascript A Tcl/Itcl Implementation in Javascript based on Tcl in Javascript with a lot of enhancements and a lot of Tcl 8.6 functionality
GSoC:
Presentations on Tcl conferences:
One evening every month you can find me at TUGM [L4 ].
