you may dislike my answer....but i have a shell script that passes the parms to web2py that i want. i launch it via terminal, and i ctrl-c to kill and then restart. i find that much faster than waiting for the tcl window to load (and i can share the script with my coding team and we don't have to ask what our settings are when debugging things).
so i have no real answer about the tcl interface. sorry about that. cfh On Sunday, May 6, 2012 7:28:30 AM UTC-7, Yarin wrote: > > This is still broken: > > I'm running web2py with the built-in Rocket server locally on my Mac.
