I simplified the procedure by simply calling pltcl
directly
with the arguments I found in the test script. This
resulted
in a file with the correct extension.
Then I added one complication: I called bash with the x01
script - a mixture of shell scripting and Tcl programming.
Bingo!
The shell magic 'exec pltcl -f "$0" ${1+"$@"}' is the
culprit.
There is a simple workaround: add an extra (empty)
argument
after the last. This will get the mysterious character
appended and the file name is left untouched.
I will report this on the Cygwin list later.
As for the rest of your message: thanks for the
compliments
and yes, getting all the other stuff in ought to be easy
enough. Then testing the full(er) range of capabilities
will be a jiffy indeed, even if it requires more patience
:).
It should be no problem to do that before my holidays
(in a week's time). Then there is example 33 for Tcl of
course - and a bit of example 16. Hopefully I can finish
that too.
Regards,
Arjen
