Mac OS X Tcl/Tk Aqua 8.4.4 Binary Release

Mac OS X Tcl/Tk Aqua 8.4.4 Binary Release Announcement
Aug 6, 2003

I'm pleased to announce the availability of Mac OS X binary
distributions for Tcl/Tk Aqua 8.4.4, the Mac OS X native port of the Tcl
scripting language and the Tk toolkit.

The distributions are downloadable as compressed disk images from the
Tcl/Tk Aqua file release page on Sourceforge:
http://sf.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=86100&release_id=175874

Three variants are available:

* TclTkAquaBI: Batteries-Included distribution, includes many popular
extensions (c.f. list below). This is a superset of ActiveState's
ActiveTcl distribution (on other platforms).
Installs in systemwide locations, administrator password required.
http://prdownloads.sf.net/tcltkaqua/TclTkAquaBI-8.4.4.0.dmg (15.3M)

* TclTkAqua: smaller distribution of just the TclTk frameworks, Wish,
tclsh and html docs (including debug versions of the frameworks).
Installs in systemwide locations, administrator password required.
http://prdownloads.sf.net/tcltkaqua/TclTkAqua-8.4.4.dmg (4.8M)

* TclTkAquaStandalone: drag & drop install capable, self-contained
version of Wish with embedded TclTk frameworks (no debug frameworks
or documentation included). Can be used off read-only media and
installed by unprivileged users. (1.7M)
http://prdownloads.sf.net/tcltkaqua/TclTkAquaStandalone-8.4.4.dmg

Note that these distributions require at least Mac OS X 10.2 (Jaguar);
Mac OS X 10.1 is no longer supported.

--- About Tcl/Tk ---

Tool Command Language (Tcl) is an interpreted language and a very
portable
interpreter for that language. Tcl is embeddable and extensible, and
has
been used by companies and organizations world-wide since its creation
in
1988 by John Ousterhout.

As a language, it is much like UNIX shell languages. There is very
little
syntax and it is easy to learn. It is used to glue together building
blocks built in system programming languages like C, C++, and Java.
These
building blocks appear as commands, or verbs, in the script language.
It
is easy to embed Tcl into a legacy program so you can script the
behavior
of that program and add in other building blocks like a GUI interface.
The
Tcl interpreter is written in C and has been ported to almost every
computer platform.

Tk is a portable GUI toolkit for Tcl, it allows simple and dynamic
creation
of graphical interfaces that run on Mac, Windows, UNIX and other
platforms.

is a patch release, so it primarily included bug fixes and corrections

* Safe base tests normalized paths

* Improved cygwin path support (when building with cygwin libraries)

* Improved MT-safety of VFS filesystem records
