I've been looking at the tcl plugin 2.0.3beta, trying to determine
if I can run a large existing Tk application in a browser window.
The application is TkGnats. It does everything imaginable: opens
sockets, reads and writes files in the users home directory, executes
additional copies of wish to create new toplevels (this could perhaps
be done better with the "interp" command). It pops up confirmation and
error dialogs, file selectors, and helper dialogs. It has menus. On
UNIX platforms it may execute external programs such as "id", "ypmatch"
and so on to determine some variable values (user home dir, logname,
full name, group name, etc).
I see that the plugin has policies and features that reinstate the
"unsafe" commands to the safe interpreter, but I can't tell if this
is going to be possible or not.
Can anybody give me some idea as to whether this is possible, and
where to start looking to make this happen?
