version 3.0 build 04
August 1999
This software is freely distributed under the GNU Lesser General Public License. I've include this in this distribution as an HTML file.
The following is a description of the directory structure for the distribution:
install | Holds the installer script and the debug and release versions of the stubbed DLLs for Tcl8.2 and above. I also wanted to build a distribution for Tcl8.0.5+ without stubs, but no matter were I downloaded the Tcl installer from, it failed half way through the installation. |
docs | Documentation. |
src | The source for OpTcl with Visual C++ v6.0 (sp3) workspace. |
tests | A couple of test scripts using MS Word, and the Calendar Control. Need to put an example of scripting DirectX - should nicely show off what OpTcl can really do! :-) |
To install, run the install script optcl_install.tcl. This will autodetect your version and location of your Tcl and select the appropriate installation settings. The installer copies the suitable DLL <tcl_lib>/../optcl/optcl.dll, and pkg_mkIndex is applied to that directory.
The package can now be used by loaded using the command:
package require optcl
This work uses ideas developed by Jacob Levy in his Taxi specification. I am very grateful for his helpful comments and encouragement.
