Hi Geoffrey: Thanks for your understanding of that difficult release management issue. > > However, please don't pitch the Tcl/Tk stuff. I and others use it > regularly. The code will remain and also all the build-system machinery for it. The only change is that Tk, itk, and itcl will have to be specifically enabled with the cmake options -DENABLE_tk=ON -DENABLE_itk=ON -DENABLE_itcl=ON in order to build those PLplot components. I also plan to put a warning paragraph about the whole Tk situation in the release notes. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
