Hi!

Peppar Parnes asked:

Peppar> I was wondering how the support for tcl7 and tk3.3 is comming on??

I am working on it. Tcl 7.0 provides nice extensions that will make
coding tkined and especially scotty much easier and more portable.

I came to the following decisions:

o No backward compatibility to tk3.2 and tcl6.7 once tk3.3 and
tcl7.0 is out.

o Scotty will not support extended tcl (no -DTCLX anymore).

o Scotty will compile with any K&R C compiler (no ANSI requirement).

Any comments on this? Is anyone using extended TCL features for tkined
scripts that can be run by the tcl interpreter binary of extended tcl?
