From: Cameron Laird on 2 Jul 2010 09:51 QOTW: "... the only thing it seems to be good for is, if you see somebody using [concat], you can be pretty sure that they don't understand Tcl and need help." - Joe English http://www.sqlite.org/draft/download.html has the TEA-tarball betas for SQLite 3.7.0 beta. Notice especially the availability of write- ahead logging: http://www.sqlite.org/draft/wal.html http://www.itworld.com/software/112800/database-round Thanks to Arjen Markus for his mostly-weekly Wiki reports: The football championship is doing strange things to people in your chronicler's corner of the world, but fortunately the Wiki is not suffering from that. Old pages resurfacing - Maurice Ulis's work still lives on the Wiki, now with a few screenshots. See the pages on Hugelist and Virtuallist, for instance - <http://wiki.tcl.tk/6784> and <http://wiki.tcl.tk/10035> - The alternative small-footprint implementation of Tcl, Jim, gets attention as well - <http://wiki.tcl.tk/13693> Demonstrating features - Gnuplot may have its quirks, but hey, you can do fascinating things with it. Especially if you use Tcl to tame it - <http://wiki.tcl.tk/13555> - XML files must fit their XML schemas. see this demonstration of an easy way to verify the relationship - <http://wiki.tcl.tk/24361> - If you want to learn more about the canvas widget, this may be a useful start: <http://wiki.tcl.tk/15073> Packages and applications - The development environment MyTCL is gaining more and more features. Look at the screenshots at <http://wiki.tcl.tk/5334>. - If you use dictionaries a lot, you may benefit from this collection of tools - <http://wiki.tcl.tk/17686> - A tool implemented in both C and Tcl, this package helps compare files and lists with full UNICODE support. Its home is revealed in <http://wiki.tcl.tk/26364> Photographs - A large number of pages deal with manipulating photographic images: <http://wiki.tcl.tk/10504> for instance, unfortunately the images themselves seem to have gone. 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://code.activestate.com/recipes/langs/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.
