Z39.50 is a protocol used mostly in library software. References here on the wiki are:

  • Yaz - toolkit that provides access to the Z39.50/SR protocol
  • ASN - abstract syntax notation
  • Zebra - text indexing and retrieval engine

Now, is anybody aware of a z39.50 server written in Tcl? There is one in Perl, called SimpleServer.

There was a project years ago that built a server in tcl

The yaz people, part Adam Dickmeis wrote the code.

They also have/had IRTcl client that spoke to z39.50 servers
