I currently have no homepage but you can always check out my YCMA Masters Swim Team's homepage at http://www.cmym.us .  Also if you are in the Baltimore/Maryland/US area please feel free to stop and swim with us.  I'm not just the head coach but also one of the swimmers, webmaster, social director, etc...

I have been sober ... I mean using Tcl since 1999.  Before that I mainly used C but have been know to work in java, pascal, jovial, fortran, assembly (various) and microcode (68000, rtl, vrtl).  I have tried [perl] and [python] but much prefer the syntax of Tcl.  I have attended the [Seventh Annual Tcl/Tk Conference] and [Tenth Annual Tcl/Tk Conference] where I met many Tclers.

Here on the Wiki I've contributed to the following pages. 
   * [RssPoint]
   * [1750A to Float Conversion]
   * [Ask, and it shall be given.]
   * [Windows/CE], [PocketPC], [Known Bugs in CE ports]
   * [How do people produce the PocketPC screenshots]
   * [CueCat] and [TkCatScan]
   * [NewzPoint]
   * [X10] ~ [x10-cm17a], [X10-mr26a], 
   * [optcl]
   * [always on top]
   * [ffidl]
   * [SLOC]

'''HOME'''

I have been working on [NewzPoint], my replacement for PointCast. NewzPoint is a tabbed layout webviewer with auto refresh.  It was developed using Tcl/Tk and [optcl].  A couple of Tclers have seen this application and the comments have been favoriable.  But it maybe hard to decribe why you might need NewzPoint but I am hooked (a Tivo[http://www.tivo.com] type problem).  NewzPoint has been packaged as a [Starkit] and [Starpack] since February of 2002.

I also have been using Tcl/Tk on a [PocketPC] since I bought my Hp Jornada 525 (SH3).  I have been amazed at how much it works and have written a lot of little apps for it.  I have also used an [iPaq] 3150 and a HP h1910.  I now have a Dell Axim X5 (400Mhz) running version PocketPC 2003 (Mobile Media).

'''WORK'''

I have been using Tcl for automated testing of embedded radar system [http://www.es.northropgrumman.com/es/pages/avionics/avionics_overview.html].  I am the architecture and software lead of our current test tool for validation testing.  This tool uses [safe] tcl to run each script test in a 'sandbox' and generate html datasheets (viewable in realtime with [tkHtml]).  The tool called ASE (said 'ace') is a modular collection of applications with Tcl as the test interpreture.  It also uses ProDebug (from [TclPro]) to perform the test script debugging.  A GUI (was java now Tk/Tcl), a data streaming server (Tk/Tcl) and a Tcl/Tk editor (currently ml [http://fastbase.co.nz/edit/index.html]).  Each part is connected by network sockets so that any piece can be upgraded or replaced without affecting the whole application.  It also has generated a lot of little Tcl tools like ''[TclDoc]'' (a javadoc knockoff) and ''[fickle]'' (a flex knockoff) just to name a few.
