'''TclTk Aqua Batteries-Included''' is a freely available [Batteries Included] binary distribution of the [MacOS X] native Tcl/Tk and fifty popular extensions. It is a superset of [ActiveTcl] (on other platforms). [TclTkAquaBI] is maintained by [Daniel Steffen]. About it, [Steve Landers] remarked, "Daniel's work on the Mac 'Batteries Included' is particularly noteworthy .... it makes it trivially easy for non-Mac people to move their Tcl/Tk scripts to that platform ..." Smaller distributions of MacOS X Tcl/Tk only, and of a self-contained Wish application (similar to [TclKit]), are also available. The distributions are downloadable as compressed disk images from the file area [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=86100&release_id=219460] of the Tcl/Tk Aqua sourceforge site. Note that the default downloads require [MacOS X] 10.3 (Panther); but disk images for [MacOS X] 10.2 are also available (files with -Jaguar suffix). [MacOS X] 10.1 is no longer supported. Visit http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/ for more details and direct download links. See below for a list of packages included with the latest '''TclTkAquaBI 8.4.6.1''' release. Most packages are built from the HEAD (resp. tip of core-8-4-branch) of their CVS repositories as of 2004-05-17 00:00:00 GMT (or from the latest tarballs where there is no CVS access), see [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/8.4.6/cvsTag.conf] for details; with some patches [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/8.4.6/patches/] applied. The distributions use the standard Apple Installer, allowing users to install all or only some of the packages included. The BI installer is also easily adapted to include only a subset of the bundled packages for building customized distributions. The tools used to build the distribution (including the installer packages & disk images) are available [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/8.4.6/], including archives of the exact (unpatched) sources [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/8.4.6/src/] used to build the distribution. Also at that location are individual tarballs of the binaries [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/8.4.6/tar/] and installer packages [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/8.4.6/pkg/] contained in the distribution; additionally, this contains binaries of Tcl [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/8.4.6/tar/Tcl_X11-8.4.6.tar.gz] & Tk/X11 [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/8.4.6/tar/Tk_X11-8.4.6.tar.gz] built in the standard unix style into /usr/local. While the default distribution downloads require [MacOS X] 10.3 (Panther); a set of binaries, installer packages and disk-images built on [MacOS X] 10.2 (Jaguar) is also available [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/8.4.6/Jaguar/]. Note the presence of both [Tclkit] and the new Wishkit, which allows the running of [starkit]s under either Tk/X11 or Tk/Aqua. The TclTkAqua BI distribution is available free of charge for any use permitted under the open-source BSD License [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/LICENSE], including use in commercial products. However, given that the ongoing maintenance and improvement of the distribution requires a significant amount of time, donations [http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/#donations] supporting the future development of TclTkAquaBI are certainly greatly appreciated. ---- '''Packages included with the TclTk Aqua BI 8.4.6.1 distribution:''' * [Tcl]/[Tk] 8.4.6, [Thread] 2.6 [http://www.tcl.tk/] * [TclX] 8.4 [http://tclx.sourceforge.net/] * [TclVfs] 1.3 [http://sourceforge.net/projects/tclvfs/] * [Expect] 5.40 [http://expect.nist.gov/] * [Tcllib] 1.6, [Tklib] 0.2, [BWidget] 1.7, [Mclistbox] 1.02 [http://tcllib.sourceforge.net/] * [incr tcl]/[incr tk] 3.3b1, [IWidgets] 4.0.2 [http://incrtcl.sourceforge.net/itcl/] * [TkTable] 2.8, [VUW widgets] 2.2 [http://tktable.sourceforge.net/] * [TkHtml] 2.0 [http://www.hwaci.com/sw/tkhtml/] * [Tile] 0.4 [http://tktable.sourceforge.net/tile/] * [Img] 1.3 [http://sourceforge.net/projects/tkimg/] * [TkTreeCtrl] 1.0 [http://tktreectrl.sourceforge.net/] * [Tix] 8.4 [http://tix.sourceforge.net/] * [TclXML] 2.6, [TclDOM] 2.6, [TclXSLT] 2.6 [http://tclxml.sourceforge.net/] * [TclSOAP] 1.6.7 [http://tclsoap.sourceforge.net/] * [tDOM] 0.8.0 [http://www.tdom.org/] * [Memchan] 2.2a5 [http://memchan.sourceforge.net/] * [Trf] 2.1p2 [http://tcltrf.sourceforge.net/] * TrfCrypt 2.0p3 [http://www.oche.de/~akupries/soft/trfcrypt/] * [TLS] 1.5.0 [http://tls.sourceforge.net/] * [TclODBC] 2.5 [http://sourceforge.net/projects/tclodbc/] * [TclHttpd] 3.5.0 [http://tclhttpd.sourceforge.net/] * [Tbcload] 1.4, Compiler 1.5, Parser 1.4 [http://tclpro.sourceforge.net/] * [SWIG] 1.3.22 [http://www.swig.org/] * [Metakit]/Mk4Tcl 2.4.9.3, [Oomk] 0.3.1 [http://www.equi4.com/metakit/tcl.html] * [Snack] 2.2.5 [http://www.speech.kth.se/snack/] * [XOTcl] 1.2.0 [http://www.xotcl.org/] * [TcLex] 1.2 [http://sourceforge.net/projects/tclex/] * [TclAE] 2.0b15 [http://tclae.sourceforge.net/] * [TclAppleScript] 1.0 [http://sourceforge.net/projects/tclapplescript/] * TclResource 1.1 [http://sourceforge.net/projects/tclresource/] * [QuickTimeTcl] 3.1 [http://quicktimetcl.sourceforge.net/] * [MacSpeech] 2.0 [http://tclspeech.sourceforge.net/] * TclAddressBook 1.0 [http://tcladdressbook.sourceforge.net/] * MacCarbonPrint 0.2 [http://sourceforge.net/projects/tclbitprint/] * [e4Graph] 1.0a11 [http://e4graph.sourceforge.net/] * [Tkcon] 2.4 [http://tkcon.sourceforge.net/] * [TclApps] 2004-05-14 [http://tcllib.sourceforge.net/] * [Tclkit] 8.4.6, [SDX], [Critcl], [Wikit] [http://www.equi4.com/tclkit/] * Wishkit 8.4.6 [http://www.equi4.com/tclkit/] * CritLib 2003-04-10 [http://www.equi4.com/critlib/] * Launcher 1.1 [http://www.maths.mq.edu.au/~steffen/tcltk/Launcher/] * [Tcl]/[Tk] Prerelease 8.5a2 [http://www.tcl.tk/] ---- ''[[ [Daniel Steffen] 20/May/04 ]]'' ---- [category distribution]
