Ousterhout's latest version of tcl, version 5.0, is available along with Tk 1.0, his Tcl based toolkit for X. It is available by anonymous ftp from sprite.berkeley.edu, in the file tk.tar.Z. The "Hackercorp" version of Tcl seems to have some nice extensions, but it is not completely compatable with the Ousterhout Tcl, so I have not used it to any great extent. Perhaps they (The "Hackercorp" folks) could coordinate their work with that of Ousterhout, to produce one enhanced version of Tcl. -- T.T.F.N., dave truesdell (truesdel@nas.nasa.gov) Ita erat quando hic adventi.
