A basekit is another term for [tclkit]-like technology. Since the creator of Tclkit asked that developers not add or remove extensions from a tclkit file, one might assume that if they call their file a '''basekit''' then they could, in theory, offer variants. Perhaps [dqkit] might be called a basekit? The first use of the term I recall was from [ActiveState]. ---- '''List of Basekits''' ''(with comparison to Tclkit)'' * [ActiveTcl] - ActiveTcl includes basekits with each distro release that mirror the core release of the dist * [Tclkit] - the original basekit * [Tclkit Lite] - like Tclkit, but with fewer extensions included * [Tclkit Mobile] - a port of Tclkit + [Tkcon] to certain PDAs * Tclkit-X11 (Mac OS X only) - like Tclkit but with Tk/X11 in place of Tk/Aqua; part of the [TclTkAquaBI] distribution for Mac OS X * [TixTclKit] (Windows only) - a different set of extensions including [Tix] and Windows-specific tools * [Dqkit] - a much larger set of extensions, including [BLT] * [kbskit] - build environment creates either tclkit-like or tclkit lite-like executables (slightly different, but intended to be similar) * [KitCreator] - a build environment to create a tclkit-like executables * [Wize - Wish Integrated Zip Executable] tclkit like with compiler and a lot of goodies. [[anyone want to build a table that lists what extensions are in each basekit?]] %| | ActiveTcl | Tclkit | Tclkit Lite | Tclkit Mobile | Tclkit-X11 | TixTclKit | Dqkit | kbskit | KitCreator | Wize |% &| '''Tcl''' | 8.4, 8.5, 8.6, | 8.4, 8.5 | 8.4, 8.5 | | | 8.4 | 8.4, 8.5 | 8.5, 8.6 | 8.4, 8.5, 8.6 | |& &| '''Tk''' | ''same as Tcl'' | ''same'' | ''same'' | | | ''same'' | ''same'' | ''same'' | ''same'' | |& &| '''Thread''' | 2.6.5 ''(opt)'' | no | | | | no | 2.6.3 | 2.6.5 | 2.6.5 ''(opt)'' | |& &| '''Incr Tcl''' | no | 3.4 | | | | 3.3 | 3.3 | 3.4 | 3.4 | |& &| '''Metakit''' | 2.4.9.7 | 2.4.9.7 | | | | 2.4.9.2 | 2.4.9.2 | 2.4.9.7 | 2.4.9.7 | |& &| '''TclVFS''' | 1.4.1 | 1.3 | | | | 1.2 | 1.3 | 1.4.1 | 1.3 | |& &| '''Registry''' | ''Win-only'' | ''same'' | ''same'' | ''same'' | no | 1.1.1 | ''Win-only'' | ''same'' | ''same'' | ''same'' |& &| '''DDE''' | ''Win-only'' | ''same'' | ''same'' | ''same'' | no | 1.2.1 | ''Win-only'' | ''same'' | ''same'' | ''same'' |& &| '''Tclx''' | no | no | | | | no | ''???'' | no | no | |& &| '''PWB (8.4)''' | 1.1 | 1.1 | | | | 1.1 | no | no | 1.1 | |& &| '''Rechan''' | 1.0 | 1.0 | | | | 1.0 | 1.0 | no | 1.0 | |& &| '''Zlib''' | 1.0 | 1.1 | | | | 1.1 | 1.1 | no | 1.1 | |& &| '''TDBC''' | no | no | | | | no | no | 1.0b1 | no | |& &| '''BLT''' | no | no | | | | no | 2.4 | no | no | |& &| '''Tix''' | no | no | | | | 8.2 | no | no | no | |& &| '''SQLite''' | no | no | | | | 2.0 | 2.0 | no | no | |& &| '''SQLite3''' | no | no | | | | no | 3.3.4 | no | no | |& &| '''tclodbc''' | no | no | | | | 2.3 | no | no | no | |& &| '''Expect''' | no | no | | | | no | 5.43.0 | no | no | |& &| '''Itk''' | no | no | | | | no | 3.3 | no | no | |& &| '''Iwidgets''' | no | no | | | | no | 4.0.2 | no | no | |& &| '''mysqltcl''' | no | no | | | | no | 2.0 | no | no | |& &| '''Pgtcl''' | no | no | | | | no | 1.5 | no | no | |& &| '''tbcload''' | no | no | | | | 1.4 | 1.4 | no | no | |& &| '''Tktable''' | no | no | | | | 2.8 | no | no | no | |& &| '''autoscroll''' | no | no | | | | 1.0 | no | no | no | |& &| '''BWidget''' | no | no | | | | 1.6 | no | no | no | |& &| '''ctext''' | no | no | | | | 3.1 | no | no | no | |& &| '''cwind''' | no | no | | | | 1.3.1 | no | no | no | |& &| '''emu_graph''' | no | no | | | | 1.1 | no | no | no | |& &| '''ffidl''' | no | no | | | | ''???'' | no | no | no | |& &| '''gbutton''' | no | no | | | | 0.2 | no | no | no | |& &| '''iniparse''' | no | no | | | | 1.4 | no | no | no | |& &| '''mentry''' | no | no | | | | 2.6 | no | no | no | |& &| '''mkGeneric''' | no | no | | | | 1.3 | no | no | no | |& &| '''mkTables''' | no | no | | | | 1.0 | no | no | no | |& &| '''optcl''' | no | no | | | | 3.0 | no | no | no | |& &| '''snit''' | no | no | | | | 0.81 | no | no | no | |& &| '''tablelist''' | no | no | | | | 3.3 | no | no | no | |& &| '''tdom''' | no | no | | | | 0.7.8 | no | no | no | |& &| '''tdomhtml''' | no | no | | | | 0.1.0 | no | no | no | |& &| '''tkdnd''' | no | no | | | | 1.0 | no | no | no | |& &| '''tnc''' | no | no | | | | 0.3 | no | no | no | |& &| '''wcb''' | no | no | | | | 2.8 | no | no | no | |& &| '''Wikit''' | no | no | | | | 1.0 | no | no | no | |& &| '''winutils''' | no | no | | | | 0.8 | no | no | no | |& &| '''compiler''' | no | no | | | | 1.4 | no | no | no | |& &| '''TclCurl''' | no | no | | | | 0.10.5 | no | no | no | |& ---- !!!!!! %| [Category Glossary] | [Category Deployment] | [Category Tclkit] |% !!!!!!
