Description: Modified version of Tcl 7.4/Tk 4.0 which implements
a transportable agent system in which autonomous programs, written
in Agent Tcl, migrate under their own control from machine to
machine, interacting with other agents. Analagous to Telescript,
but using Tcl as the language. Package consists of a server
and tclX/tkX interpreters. Limited security implemented
at this time, but this component is under development.
See http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/%7Ergray/transportable.html
for more details. There is a PDF article from July/August 1997
at http://computer.org/internet/ on Agent Tcl as well
as other articles around the internet.
Currently at version 2.1 .

Contact: mailto:[email protected] (Bob Gray)escargo 7 Apr 2005 - It looks to me like TIP #226: Interface to Save and Restore Interpreter State [L1 ] might simplfy the implementation of such agents.
