JStrack is a freeware hurricane tracking program written
entirely with Tcl/Tk.

NOTE:  '''JStrack's author has been diagnosed with
cancer''', and the JStrack site is offline until he
can get his own Internet service again.  This
may be a while.

I said when I first wrote JStrack (even before I
announced the idea to a few folks and asked for their
opinions) that JStrack would always be free.  This has
not changed.  HOWEVER....  '''Financial considerations at
this time''' (bills I have no way of paying, total lack of income,
etc.) '''require that I at least give people the chance to
send donations, if they so desire.'''

I can be reached at j88aggie@yahoo.com (will update info here
if/when it changes) for further contact info.

Sorry folks, but the next release might be a lot further off
than I'd hoped.  Here's hoping everyone is using the latest
"snapshot" release from the former site....

The [Wayback Machine] contains the following snapshot of JStack, in case anyone needs it:

It's a 1.6MB download (unpacks to 15MB) though, so go easy on the WBM.

Thanks!  --jdg       Except, uhhh, it's a dead link.  No JStrack.  If anyone has the latest version,
and wouldn't mind making it available, please put the link here.  I have, in a storage locker I can't
get to, an even more up-to-date version with some rather major updates from last hurricane season (if
I remember correctly---combine the "fog" from chemotherapy and the anti-stress medication they've got
me on and my memory isn't so great) and...if I haven't lost the locker and everything in it due to
financial problems by then, I'll try to dig out the FreeBSD machine and make a new release with the
*REAL* latest version.....

Also, anyone interested in how I'm doing in the fight against cancer should look at
my atspace page, which, as I type this, I'm working on setting up as a central point
for distributing information to friends/family.  The link is  http://spooky130.atspace.com/.
Also check out my myspace page, at http://www.myspace.com/spooky130u.

(Note to Wiki admins---please advise if you disapprove of this being on the Wiki...just e-mail me with
the info.  The lack of a response to this so far leads me to believe that there are no objections, but
I'll still keep this here, just in case---I do NOT want to be seen as abusing/mis-using the site.)
