Version 9 of pkg_mkIndex

http://www.purl.org/tcl/home/man/tcl8.4/TclCmd/pkgMkIndex.htm

This is a proc in Tcl that is used to create the package index files, allowing packages to be loaded automatically when package require commands are executed.

LV So,

  • How does one use pkg_mkIndex? Reading the man page does not seem sufficient to answer this question.
 $ tclsh8.4
 % pkg_mkIndex [glob *.tcl *.so]
  • What are the steps one should follow?
  • Are there any tricks, etc.?
