Richard Suchenwirth 2007-10-11 - Successor to Windows 3.11. Even older (three years) than Windows 98, but still going strong in some places, e.g. my ancient 200MHz 48MB box at home - where most of my many hundreds of fun projects were made...
From 8.5, W95 is no longer supported by Tcl/Tk. But read on Building Tcl/Tk with Mingw near the end, how I got Tcl/Tk 8.5b1 built and running, with only two lines of code changed :^) - Not all is well, though. A canvas acts and reacts decently, while a text widget reacts to insertions from console only after touching it, and to typing in itself very sloppy. So there are still deeper problems.
Oh, and besides ActiveTcl 8.4, some things like eTcl 1.0-rc23 and tcltcc run right out of the binary box here.
