APN I've (just) started writing an online book on Tcl Programming for Windows . Please enter any comments and suggestions here.

jima 2014-06-24 Perhaps you need in each chapter's page a link to go back to the general ToC page. APN Done.

May be it will be good to have a chapter about simple DirectX programming? APN I think simple DirectX is an oxymoron :-) Seriously speaking, there is no interface to DirectX from Tcl right now (maybe perhaps Tcl3D or 3dcanvas, not sure) and implementing one would be a huge amount of work. The chapter would only come after the implementation and there's no chance that I could write one (no time and no expertise).


Zipguy 2014-06-28 - Your work seems to be excellent, in my book!

It does seem well written, for a general audience, which is hard to do, especially with a complex subject matter.


aspect 2014-08-06: feedback on the TclOO chapter - I love it! Very good presentation of the basics, which filled in some gaps in my knowledge. I picked up some (very) minor errata, listed below by section.

2.8 paragraph 3 - first sentence doesn't scan, looks like it should be two sentences?
6, note - "savings" should be "checking"
6.2 - "mixins override" - maybe mention [next] here ("though they can call the original method using [next]"), or link to section 8.1
9.4 - info object mixins/mixin
9.8 - we would not/now expect
9.8 - code example with [self filter]: is the [puts] output duplicated?
9.10 - info objects/object
