[NEW] From CPAN: Tcl-1.00
[I'm going to try this again; sorry I let it slip for a year.] Hello OpenBSD Porters, please find attached a new port for a CPAN module. WHAT: This is for the CPAN module that provides Tcl bindings, webpage here: http://search.cpan.org/~vkon/Tcl/Tcl.pm WHERE: Attached to this email, but also at: http://grex.org/~cross/p5-Tcl.tar.gz WHY: We write a lot of software in Perl on Grex, a public access Unix system running OpenBSD (ssh newu...@grex.org; follow the instructions if you want an account). Unfortunately, Perl's syntax doesn't lend itself well to writing configuration files. However, Tcl's does; using this module provides us a clean way to write configuration files in Tcl and then read them in Perl. Hooray for all inclusiveness. HOW: I created this by copying another port and looking through various others. It's been tested under 4.8-stable on i386 and in some of our code. Thanks! - Dan C. p5-Tcl.tar.gz Description: GNU Zip compressed data

Not really tested here but the regression tests pass. That's much better. Thanks, Stuart! So what's the next step here? How does one go about getting this integrated into the source tree? Thanks! - Dan C.

Hi OpenBSD Porters, I sent in the message below about three months ago; is there any update? Thanks! - Dan C.
