''Coming up soon: news of the Tcl/Tk Consortium's CD-ROM project.''

   * Monday, August 24 is the last day for early registration savings for the annual Tcl/Tk Conference (September 14-18 in San Diego) http://www.usenix.org/events/tcl98/
   * A couple of threads carefully detail Unix realities pertinent far beyond just the Tcl community. Thanks first to John Gotts for his tutorial on what to do when confronted with a Unix application that dumps core (see [http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=380868726]) Nikola Miljkovic and Jens-Uwe Mager describe the vagaries of dynamic linking, particularly with AIX (see [http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=382694639])
   * Cary D. Renzema explains the benefit to readers of the prodigious work he has done in indexing and transforming into PostScript all the manual pages (see [http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=383198105]) In that same thread, Tom Phelps advertises his TkMan convincingly (see [http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=383156610])
   * Wilson Wong and Victor Wagner collaborate to provide a nice introduction to automation of a TN3270 interface (see [http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=383171362])
   * Eric Galluzo escorts the theme of textual modularization through a swift tour of source and package, leaving the reader on the threshold of namespaces (see [http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=381261220])
   * Matt Berney gently opens yet another expression of the answer to the perennial "how do I put together C/Tk/...?" question (see [http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=381608477])
   * Scriptics issues its almost-weekly update of TclPro (see [http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=381326549])
