[Richard Suchenwirth] - This is my biggest and most favorite project since a long time: a geographic browser with map display and database browser. Most parts of it are on the Wiki at * [tkworld 0.2] - previous version, now at almost 0.5 * [A little database API] * [A little database GUI] * [Geographic mapping the Tcl way] for first ideas * [Defining Tclworld] * [Tclworld gazetteer] - major cities with lat/lon data * [strimj - string image routines] for drawing marks (for cities, mountains etc... ovals and polygon scaled "too well") Be aware that this is still in pre-alpha stage, but already running mighty nicely. Download tclworld 0.5 (ZIP file, 250 k) from http://www.digital-smarties.com/pub/tm05.zip ---- I can also send you the whole ZIP file, just ask for it by mailto:Richard.Suchenwirth-Bauersachs@siemens.com I first called this tkWorld, but then found out that this name has been taken by another software years ago, so now it's '''Tclworld'''. ---- A user has reported that he got Tclworld to run under WinCE on a pocket PC. ([RS]) Another wrote "It works well on MacOS X, both on X-11 tclkit and Aqua Tk". More reports, also of problems, are welcome! ---- Rich map data are available e.g. from "Digital Chart of the World", http://www.maproom.psu.edu/dcw/ - downloaded text files (country outlines) from there can be loaded into Tclworld with the geo::dmc proc. Download US gazetteer files (plane names, pop., lat & lon) from http://ftp.census.gov/geo/www/gazetteer/places.html ---- [Arts and crafts of Tcl-Tk programming]
