By the way, if you are intending to package your application in
8.5 .tm format in the future, do not use '-' in the package name. Make
it appOEVLetters. From what I recall, the '-' confuses the tm loader
which parses it as a separator. Not sure if that problem still exists.

That's the wheel ... re-invented.

I don't think that's the check you intended to perform. This will
execute the ::tcl::tm::path add command for all Tcl versions, except
8.4. So also for Tcl 8.3. A better method would probably be to use
vsatisfies instead of vcompare:

if {[package vsatisfies [package require Tcl] 8.5]} {
::tcl::tm::path add [file join $starkit::topdir lib]
}


Schelte.

True, but in my case, the app will not even build if version is < 8.4.
The makefile verifies the tclkit versions. You're right in general
though.

BTW I don't think tclkit 8.3 exists.
