'88-'91, ... See [Tcl chronology] for how [Tk] fits into things. In 1991, [JO] presents Tk at the X Technical Conference and at the Winter [USENIX] conference. ftp://www.tcl.tk/pub/tcl/doc/tkUsenix91.ps and ftp://www.tcl.tk/pub/tcl/doc/tkF10.ps are the original paper, along with a figure, from that USENIX conference. [[What details should go in here?]] [[What and when was the first Tk extension?]] [Changes in Tcl/Tk] points to a series of pages that detail what features are added, modified, or deleted in each release. http://www2.sdtimes.com/content/article.aspx?ArticleID=31644 ---- [[Explain the Great Re-Unification of version numbers.]] [DKF] 19-Feb-2008: From 8.0 onwards, it was decided (by [JO]/[Scriptics]) to make the version number of Tcl and Tk match. Without that, it's probably the case that Tk would still be in the 4.* version number series, as Tk apps from 4.0 onwards are highly-compatible with the current release. ---- !!!!!! %| [Category Community] | [History of Tcl and Tk] |% !!!!!!
