(NOTE: wince is the abbreviation for Windows/CE, commonly found running on
smaller machines also known as PDAs (personal digital assistants).


Rainer Keuchel has completed a port of Tcl/Tk 8.4a2 for WinCE using his celib.dll [http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/celib.html] porting library.  

Per the release notes, "This version of Tcl/Tk is still a bit buggy, but many things work. ''It's also a little bit slow.''"

'''Download'''

http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/dirlist.html

   1. Get the tcl generic tcltk package [http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/tcltk-all-platforms.tar.gz].
   2. Then get your specific processor's binary package: SH3 [http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/tcltk-wince-sh3-hpc-wce211.tar.gz], ARM [http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/tcltk-wince-arm-hpc-wce300.tar.gz], MIPS-palm [http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/tcltk-wince-mips-palm-wce201.tar.gz], MIPS-hpc [http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/tcltk-wince-mips-hpc-wce211.tar.gz]
   3. Next get the celib package [http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/celib-3.06-dll-bin-all-platforms.tar.gz].
   4. Finally get the ''WinCE desktop tools'' [http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/wince-desktop-tools.tar.gz].  ''This will allow you to update the registry from your desktop.''

'''Installation'''

   1. Install the celib.dll for your processor specific platform in the '\Windows' directory on your WinCE device.
   2. Unpack and install tcltk [[I will put more info in here later - including directory structure]] [MPJ]
   3. Unpack the cereg.exe file from the ''WinCE desktop tools'' and place it in a directory with the batch file at the end of this note (on your desktop PC).  Configure the batch file per your installation and then run it from the command line to update your WinCE device's registry.

'''RUNNING'''

[[Add notes on how to run a file here]] [MPJ]

'''NOTES'''

Currently contains the ''registry'' binary package (1.0).  I have also checked this out with the tcltk only packages: Bwidget (1.3.0) and tcllib (1.1).  I have also tested this out with [tkcon].

'''BUGS'''

   1. Radiobutton look like checkbutton but act like radiobuttons.
