ADB together with the MySQL database connectivity module adbsql are a Tcl/Tk package useful for Tcl/Tk programmers that want to store their data in a database-kind of way with tables and fields. Two (optional) features of ADB that may make it worthwhile for you: - Sun, May 20 2007 9:18 am 1 message, 1 author http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.tcl/t/cc5c766f19df7680?hl=en can we use shell-like short key in tcl shell - 1 new ---------------------------------------------------- If you have X or other windowing system available, I recommend tkcon. Lots of convenience features.

So theoretically it is possible, as the Perl/Tk implementation does not use any Perl specialities for the balloons, as far as I know.

Running several [regsub]'s in sequence tends to be largely slower than the equivalent [string map] (though you can offset that effect with the "|" operator inside regexps). However, there's an alternative: approximate by a superlanguage, IOW be overgenerative. Loosely speaking, the larger the language, the smaller the automaton. - Sun, May 20 2007 12:29 pm 3 messages , 3 authors http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.tcl/t/f4de98dc3d4fe763?hl=en can I load tclmagick.dll if I didn't install the imagemagick? - 1 new --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, is the problem solved now ? This weekend I was contacted with a similar question, and it came out that a wrong combination of TclMagick and ImageMagick/GraphicsMagick binaries had been used see below).

However, I've never heard of such an encoding and there is no enc file for this. Can anyone tell me what this is supposed to be? Thanks. - Sun, May 20 2007 11:17 pm 1 message, 1 author http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.tcl/t/6c04ba2af78bfd0b?hl=en How to use pass by reference in procs in TCL - 2 new ---------------------------------------------------- Hi, I need to write a script in which it uses proc's. I want to know how to use pass by reference to the proc's. A small example would be great. -Swaroop - Mon, May 21 2007 12:06 am 2 messages , 2 authors http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.tcl/t/dc5f2a31f3cf3883?hl=en ============================================================================== You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "comp.lang.tcl" group.
