From: Cameron Laird on 12 Feb 2010 11:24 QOTW: "Tcl doesn't SEGV. Not for long, anyway. Nothing scrambles the Tcl core team like a SEGV." - Colin McCormack Thanks to Arjen Markus for his weekly summary of Wiki activity: If you are not a sports fan or do not like watching winter sports, a look at the Wiki will provide plenty of reading material. - From IP address to the place of origin, only a few lines of code and a table are required: <http://wiki.tcl.tk/8889> - Keeping the connection between an external program and Tcl open ... <http://wiki.tcl.tk/1117> makes an appearance after quite a few years. - TclOO may be - quite intentionally - a bare bones object-oriented extension, it can do lots of tricks, with a little help: <http://wiki.tcl.tk/21595> - The hash algorithm that has been part of Tcl for so many years is under discussion: <http://wiki.tcl.tk/5164> - Effective use of Tcl modules - use this template: <http://wiki.tcl.tk/25702> - Here is a financial application written in Tcl/Tk. Balance your books! <http://wiki.tcl.tk/25736> contains the relevant link. - Extracting documentation from the source code with extras. Quite a few tools are available (<http://wiki.tcl.tk/13009> gives an overview) and Natural Docs is one - <http://wiki.tcl.tk/19914> Everything Tcl-related you want is probably one or two clicks away in these pages: The "Welcome to comp.lang.tcl" message by Andreas Kupries http://www.purl.org/net/tcl-welcome comp.lang.tcl is a crucial resource for Tcl practitioners. An interesting perspective on its traffic appears at http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.tcl/about The Tcl Developer Site is Tcl's "home base". http://www.tcl.tk Larry Virden maintains a comp.lang.tcl FAQ launcher. http://www.purl.org/NET/Tcl-FAQ/ Tcl Developer Xchange sponsor, ActiveState, keeps info to convince your boss Tcl is a good thing http://www.tcl.tk/scripting/ The Tcl'ers Wiki is a huge, dynamic, collaboratively edited repository of documentation, examples, tutorials and pontifications on all things Tcl. http://wiki.tcl.tk/0 For the ideal overview of the topics about Tcl most likely to interest a newcomer, see "Arts and Crafts ..." http://wiki.tcl.tk/969 There's also a high-quality Wikibook on Tcl: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Programming:Tcl ActiveState maintains binaries distribution and development tools http://www.activestate.com/Tcl along with a Cookbook of Tcl recipes http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Tcl "La Gazette du Técleux" is an important monthly publication. http://wfr.tcl.tk/1159 deli.cio.us presents an intriguing approach to reference commentary. It already aggregates quite a bit of Tcl intelligence. http://del.icio.us/tag/tcl Cameron Laird tracks several Tcl/Tk references of interest (but needs to validate many of the links). http://phaseit.net/claird/comp.lang.tcl/ Years ago, Cetus Links maintained a Tcl/Tk page with verified links http://www.cetus-links.org/oo_tcl_tk.html "Yahoo! Groups" archives comp.lang.tcl.announce posts--even though clta itself is dormant. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tcl_announce/ We're working on more useful archives of past installments. Dave Williams generously is building up http://www.bacomatic.org/~dw/comp/tclurl/index.htm and of course Google gives us http://groups.google.com/groups?oi=djq&as_q=+Tcl-URL&as_ugroup=comp.lang.tcl Suggestions/corrections for next week's posting are always welcome. To receive a new issue of this posting in e-mail each Monday, ask <claird(a)phaseit.net> to subscribe. Be sure to mention "Tcl-URL!". -- Phaseit, Inc.
