The version 113 has been modified by The Zipguy to version 1.20 Changes:

  • Added toolbar for icons
  • Uses a Panned window for the Procs which is resizeable so you can maximize the horizontal area of the file being editted
  • You can Run the file (after saving)
  • You can Run the file ../../main.tcl above it,which is useful for testing unwrapped starkits)
  • Can have different splits for each file being editted
  • Made the Popup window on right click Tearoff
  • Added "Save" choice to the popup
  • Added "Save & Run" choice to the popup
  • Added "Save & Run main.tcl" choice to the popup
  • Modified logic so popup is placed correctly when not maximized
  • Does not Maximize the Window on start
  • Increased the size of the font for procs
  • Colors are now variables and are loaded/saved in ml_cfg/ml
  • ml_cfg.ml is now written in the folder from which ml was run, NOT in the edited file's folder.
  • Modified the Procedure Navigator text and the About window text to reflect that this is v1.20 (ZipGuy) version

There is a new popup menu on a right click:

Note that this version lets you run the ../../main.tcl file which is what the starkit would run.

Is anyone interested in it?

LV Sure!

19feb05 jcw - Suggestion - if you change this line:

    set editor(executed)    [file attribute [info nameofexecutable] -longname]

to:

    set editor(executed)    [file attribute [info nameofexecutable]]
    catch {set editor(executed) [file attribute [info nameofexecutable] -longname]}

... then the starkit will work on platforms other than Windows.

19feb05 Zipguy - Great suggestion, done!

Robert Abitbol And if you make an exe for Windows, I'd love to have a look!

LV Remember, once a starkit has been made, anyone can create a single file executable from that starkit with only 2 additional files - see starpack for details.

Robert Abitbol Thanks Larry! But I went to see the starkit and I see a lof of encrypted code. Here: [L3 ]

This doesn't look like a TCL script to me! :-) More like a long love-letter from a Martian to his girlfriend in Jupiter... :-)
