Application to provide a GUI local desktop interface to the Tcl'ers Wiki chat application at http://purl.org/mini/cgi-bin/chat.cgi
See also Tclers Chat Tk GUI, Improving Tcl Chat, and tclapps, which is a module in the tcllib project at SourceForge.
JBR: a starkit for TkChat is in the sdarchive [L1 ]
LV: Anyone know if the starkit version of tkchat updates itself from the sourceforge cvs repository appropriately?
SCL: If it's the one I put together - no.
JCW: Then again, anyone with a TclKit executable can do this, or automate it...
Note that sdx already skips CVS dirs when wrapping things up.
(This is one more case which could benefit from some of the self-update plans that were started for use in kitten)
As of March 15, 2002, tkchat now converts some ASCII emoticons into images.
A version during September, 2002, prototypes an instream "world-wide whiteboard", which, unfortunately, makes the real chatroom really noisy for people not using tkchat. Hopefully someone will convert that support into support for one of the Tcl/Tk whiteboard programs like Coccinella, CVW, Infocetera, the Netscape Tclet written by Mark Roseman, VAD, or xstatus.
