        It supports 30 classes representing materials, shapes, lights, cameras,

 What: MASH
 Where: http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/mash/
 Description: A multimedia networking toolkit employs a "split programming
        model," where complex multimedia programming tasks are decomposed into
        an arrangement of simple objects that are linked together and configured
        by a scripting language like Tcl.
        Includes a variety of stand alone commands such as MediaBoard, vic,
        vat, mb, collaborator, mui, nsdr, recorder, player, rover, PAthfinder,
        MPlug, MediaPad, a variety of services, libsrm (a multicast toolkit),
        SCUBA (real time multimedia bandwidth sharing), MBONE collaboration,
        coordination tools, the MeGa agent architecture, and a OTcl/C++
        framework called TclCl.  Many of the URLs on this web site are
        no longer valid - it doesn't appear much if anything has been
        updated since 1999.

 Description: MIT Object Tcl is a dynamic Object-Oriented Programming
        extension for Tcl, featuring program styles, inheritance,
        meta objects, automatic method combinations, mixing of C and C++.
        Works with Tcl 7.[345].
        The author no longer actively supports the tool.  However,
        a large user base for the extension exists at the mash
        web site, connected to "ns", a network simulator that is
        commonly used.  They have ported otcl to Tcl/Tk 8.0
        The version from Germany contains a set of fixes for various
        destroy problems discovered by Martin Andrews and Gustaf
        Neumann.
        The usc site is Haobo Yu's port of MIT otcl to Tcl 8.0b2.
        The berkeley site is the site of a project which depends on otcl -
        they too have ported it to Tcl 8.0.
        See TclCL at the mash web site.  TclOC is designed to interface OTcl
        to C++ objects.

 What: Win32 Tcl and Tk patches (jessikat)
 Where: http://www.jessikat.demon.co.uk/
 Description: A variety of patches to Tcl and Tk for Win32s.
        There are patches for wm activate bug, memory debug support,
        listbox justify, cursor, panics, and tkCanvWind.  Also on this
        page are patches and ports of a variety of extensions and
        applications such as DDE, tclStruct, BLT, otcl and a clock
        application.  Tiled widgets problematic, bgexec/busy not
        working, drag&drop ok with dde.  Also a small balloonHelp (blnhlp)
        package is available here as well.  Rotating text didn't make
        it, nor did drag and drop.  Also find a general dll
        caller for the Intel win32 platform which creates a namespace
        called dll containing the dll routines that can be called.
        Contact tested with VC++ 6.0 and Tcl 8.0.4.  It relies on the
        way MSC 4.0.  Site also has a crypt dll.
