A single teapot repository can handle multiple versions of Tcl / tclsh's. This is also under your control. If you install both ActiveTcl's into the same directory they will share the repository made by the installer. If you install the distributions into different directories they will get separate repositories. -- So long, Andreas Kupries <akupries(a)shaw.ca> <http://www.purl.org/NET/akupries/> Developer @ <http://www.activestate.com/> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
