Overview: tclTCP is a library that allows TCL based applications to communicate via TCP/IP, without using Tk's "send" command. tclTCP is an extension to Tk/TCL, and does not require patching the TCL or Tk sources. In contrast to tcl-dp, tclTCP does NOT require Tk and X. As part of its implementation, tclTCP provides a simple event handling capability for TCL applications to handle file I/O and "whenIdle" calls. (It does not provide timer handling.) Note that non-TCL applications can send commands to a TCL interpreter via a socket if the TCL application uses tclTCP. TCP/IP clients and servers for TCL -- Installation Instructions Changes in RELEASE 2.1 1) patch to handle situations like: $c send {expr $a+$b} (thanks to gah@mhcnet.att.com) This eliminates the need to have "eval" calls in "$c send" statments. 2) src/Imakefile with shared library support was modified to work with X11R6 imake configuration. (If you are using X11R5, mv src/Imakefile.xllr5 src/Imakefile) 3) fixed two memory leaks in src/tclTCP.c 4) added tcltcp executable for testing. 5) added manual page install to Imakefile Please direct correspondence on this package to Joe VanAndel (vanandel@ncar.ucar.edu) who ported it to TCL7.3, Tk3.6
