A compiler/obfuscator tool (for [source protection]) originating in the [TclPro] suite of Tcl development tools. Software ''compiled'' by this application is not, in general, faster than software not so compiled. While called a ''compiler'', the function performed is more intended to provide a slight deterrent to application users who might inadvertently (or intentionally) modify an application in such a way to cause it to cease working. ---- There are several common questions relating to procomp. Perhaps people could fill in the answers here? * Why does procomp (from [TclPro]) keep asking me about a license? I thought it was free? * How do you build procomp? * Does a program build with procomp run faster? * If I have a Tcl program that in script form can run on any platform, and then I build it with procomp, am I able to execute the resulting file on any platform? ---- An updated variant of this application is part of [ActiveState]'s [Tcl Dev Kit] (doc [http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Reference/Products/Tcl_Dev_Kit/Compiler.html]), the company's commercial successor of TclPro. This variant provides a GUI for easy access to the tools features. It is also integrated with [TclApp], the [starkit]-based tool for wrapping and rapid and easy [deployment]. ---- The files generated by this tool can be loaded by the package [tbcload]. ---- [[ [Category Application] | ([Source Protection]) ]]
