I am looking for a mature, stable and reliable TCL/TK programmer to complete a sort of editor written in TCL/TK. When I say mature, I mean 30 years old or over...

Please, no young geeks. Not that I don't like young geeks but I had my share of problems with immature, unreliable, unprofessional, Mickey Mouse, young TCL geeks and I am not interested in repeating the experience.

I will give the programmer a percentage of all my earnings for the program and some money (I am not rich).

What is left to be done:

- Fix a few things

- A simple A-Z sort of elements in a file

- The preferences module (the user sets his preferences for colors, fonts etc.)

- A basic mark-up (bold and italics are completed)

- The search and the search and replace module

- The help (very simple; it's only a link to a help page and I am writing the rest)

- The page set up

- The print (possibly)

- The time and date stamp

- Installing the program from the CD (with Nullsoft)

- Create an anti-piracy system

I am very satisfied with TCL. I find it a very solid, very stable language.

I am also willing to go with the flow here on WikiT and make some of my code available to all: the anti-piracy system for example or the search engine.

- Better still, AIM me at Pnb120. If you don't have AIM, please install it. It's only 1.5 megs and it works very well.


It may only be 1.5 meg - but it is blocked at many sites, which means that installing it is useless at best. Frankly, even app installation is blocked at my site.

I don't understand. What do you mean "it is blocked at many sites"? I have been using AIM for two years and it works very well.

Talking about chat engines, StuartCassof a well-known tecler has programmed his own private chat engine in TCL and it works very well.

Thanks for your attention.

PS: Si vous êtes francophone, je ne dis pas non. Comme je n'ai jamais eu de programmeur francophone, ce serait donc une première!
