**The Man Pages**

Online versions of the man pages for Tcl and Tk can be found at:

    * http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5
    * http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4

This wiki also has documentation for a lot of the [Tcl] and [Tk] commands.  The fundamental charter of Tcl is the "[Dodekalogue]". The Wiki [Endekalogue] page lists translations (of the Tcl reference page) to more languages.  Check the [manpages] page for a list of more.[http://www.pokerspelaren.se/ poker online]

**Other documentation considerations**

When writing documentation, a developer has to decide in what form to provide the documentation.  There are various tools available to assist in this.

There are Tcl specific tools, such as [dtp]/[doctools] software, which provides the ability to write doc in a general form, then to generate various
file formats for display purposes.  [TMML] and [dtp] are two tools designed to help Tcl developers document Tcl extensions and applications. Others can found at the [Source Documentation Tools] page.

There is a tool called txt2man (see http://freshmeat.net/projects/txt2man/) which is said to convert plain ASCII text into man page format.
