* Package name : tzint Version : 1.3 Upstream Contact: Alexander Schöpe <[email protected]> * URL : https://fossil.sowaswie.de/tzint/ * License : BSD Programming Lang: C, Tcl Description : A barcode encoding library supporting over 50 symbologies including Code 128, Data Matrix, USPS OneCode, EAN-128, UPC/EAN, ITF, QR Code, Code 16k, PDF417, MicroPDF417, LOGMARS, Maxicode, GS1 DataBar, Aztec, Composite Symbols and more tzint - a Tcl package for the libzint barcode library ===================================================== tzint encodes barcodes from Tcl. It embeds the libzint backend by Robin Stuart and exposes it as a single command, ::tzint::Encode, that hands the result back in a Tcl variable or writes it to a file. No Tk is needed; the package produces data, not windows. The embedded backend is libzint 2.16.0, which reaches over 100 symbologies. Among them are Code 128, Code 39, EAN and UPC, ITF, QR Code, Micro QR, rMQR, Data Matrix, PDF417, MicroPDF417, Aztec Code, MaxiCode, DotCode, Han Xin, Ultracode, GS1 DataBar, Code 16k, Code One, Grid Matrix, DX Film Edge, the postal codes of several countries including Royal Mail Mailmark, and the composite symbologies. The command "::tzint::Encode symbologies" lists the names this build accepts. - The Tcl language is a very fast, robust language used in various fields. This package is needed for example in applications in the field of web programming, where authentication and resource publications can be done for handheld devices using QR codes, but it's chiefly important in the field of industrial process automation - I'm planning to maintain it myself
