It also has a 12 page chapter called "Hints and Tips for the Tcl Programmer". It, along with [BOOK Tcl/Tk Pocket Reference], are currently the only books at O'Reilly's with Tcl in the title. However, O'Reilly's does publish the wonderful [BOOK Exploring Expect] which of course deals extensively with Tcl, as well as the Expect extension. ''Let's not forget the [BOOK Tcl/Tk Pocket Reference]'' as well as the [BOOK Mastering Regular Expressions] and a few others like the books on xmh, beep, IMAP, and oracle. ---- [George Howlett] writes, "It's a great reference book. How great? Not only did the authors laboriously go through the [BLT] manual pages, but compared the source code too. You're right, there's no manual entry [[for blt::winop, for example]], but they documented it from the sources." (!) <>Book
