TCL

Compressing a file (in windows)
I'm trying to iterate through a directory (in TCL) and compress certain files. In unix this would vaguely look like this foreach i $filelist { exec gzip $i } Except that I don't have gzip at my disposal in Windows XP. Which I shouldn't need - windows can handle zipped files "magically": I double- click a ".zip... 26 Jul 2010 04:03

How to split a list when calling a proc with variable arguments

tclkit string size limit?
Is there some sort of limit on the size of strings when using tclkit? I ask because I am able to use the Tcl-based browser hv3 just fine to render an html page that uses the script tag and src attribute to utilize a Javascript file that is around 70k in size. That is, until I wrap hv3 as a starkit, and then the pag... 22 Jul 2010 16:54

Counting the variables needed for "binary scan"
Hi, for passing arbitrary structured data through a network protocol, I'd like to use binary format/binary scan. My idea is to pass the format, then the binary blob through the channel, e.g. "c3Ic10I4\0<binary string>". No problem in generating this. The problem is when the other side parses the format "c3Ic10... 25 Jul 2010 14:02

In my application I need to build a selectoin of items from a tablelist. To this end, I display two tablelists next to each other. The right one contains all possible items, the left one is initially empty and is filled by double-clicking items in the right list. The right-list items are inserted in the left list a... 21 Jul 2010 15:49
