With the new Wiki in place for quite some time now, the change of the
seasons according to the meteorological calendar and various Tcl/Tk
meetings just ahead or being prepared, it seems a good moment to revive
an old tradition.


'''Golden oldies'''

There are a number of ways to (re)discover pages on the Wiki:

   * The "Recent changes" of course
   * The "Random page" choice in the "Tcler's Wiki" menu
   * And the diligent work of the various wikignomes!

As examples of the latter way:

   * [GooWee] is a window manager meant for the [weedesk] environment. All written in Tcl/Tk. Lovely screenshots :).
   * Interested in particular styles of programming? You may enjoy [Functional Programming].
   * An eternal (infernal?) question that pops every now and then: how to deal with HTML text? Perhaps [htmlparse] and the solutions mentioned there can help.


'''The capabilities of Tk'''

Despite its age, or perhaps because of its age, you can do amazing
things with Tk:

   * [Piechart Disk] may be the answer to finding out where all your disk space has gone to. Disks are big in this time and age, but they are still finite ...
   * Data visualisation is a vast topic, studded with techniques. Especially when it comes to interactivity, things are seldom simple. [loon] provides a wide variety of visualisation options. But if you want to visualise 3D data, why not have a look at [ParaView] or - in pure Tcl/Tk - [3dviewer : A canvas only viewer of 3D data]
   * The possibilities have certainly not been exhausted. Just "ter leringhe ende vermaeck" (for education and fun): [SphereDemo]
   * And, in my opinion, an astonishing piece of engineering: the [Geneva Drive] explains how projecting movies worked in the good old days.


'''Think about it'''

Two features of the new Wiki that deserve attention: the ''tutorial''
menu and, if you want more in-depth stuff to read: the [Articles] menu item.
But many pages on the Wiki give you other reading material as well:

   * [CloudTk] offers a nice way of using an Internet browser as the working environment for your Tcl/Tk applications.
   * If you need to work with JSON data, there are several packages out there that will help, [yajl-tcl] may not have the most pronounceable name, but that ssays nothing about its capabilities ;).
   * Programming paradigms and techniques differ widely - [async], for instance, helps managing child processes, one way of dividing your calculations and conquer the problem. But within in a single process [coroutine]s help to do something similar.


'''To conclude'''

This is merely a selection from the recently changed pages. There are
many many more pages offering gems of graphics or programming solutions.
So go and explore all the other ones!
