Welcome to tcl.prehiti.net, the home of a number of helpful, portable applications and utilities created with Tcl/Tk.  Among these applications are productivity apps, software development tools and image management utilities.  Additionally, a number of libraries written to support these applications are included and available for integration in other applications.

Requirements

Ok... this isn't that complicated... but it's really important.

You need:

Download

Go to the tcl.prehiti.net project page at sourceforge.net to get the latest version of the software from CVS.

Installation

  1. Install Tcl/Tk 8.2 or above.
  2. Install IncrTcl 3.1 or above.
  3. Install the Image Extension.
  4. Put the  tcl.prehiti.net software somewhere.

  5. Problems?

      Try running one of the tcl.prehiti.net apps.  Running mcvs.tcl and pv.tcl will shake out most of the installation issues.  If these apps fail to run they will most likely indicate that a particular package cannot be found.  If one of the tcl.prehiti.net libraries cannot be found, then make sure you did step 4 above correctly.  If IncrTcl or the Image Extension fail to load make sure they installed into the same location as Tcl/Tk or add more directories to your TCLLIBPATH to reflect their locations.  Note, directory names in the TCLLIBPATH variable should be seperated by spaces.
