Good to hear!
What's the deal with the ActiveTcl package, do you know anything
about it? Is tcltkaqua.sf.net defunct?...daniel steffan has stopped updating the tcltkaqua distro, which
is a big pain: however, he seems to spend more time on fixing
tkaqua, which is probably better ;-) That leaves only the
ActiveTcl distro as being actively updated, but they've included
their own selection of extensions...nice guys, but I hate the web/ form interface: they really push their dev environment...another
unfortunate-ness is that they don't distribute embeddable framework
versions, but that could be fixed with a script around
install_name_tool...
...all in all, we'll probably want to grab a cvs tag and just make
'em ourselves on the compile farm...yeehaw!
Sounds good all in all, more coding is a good thing. I think we'll
be better off if we have the embedded frameworks built by script
rather than using the pre-built "standalone" package, it would help
with some other build issues too.
