ANNOUNCE: InstallJammer Multiplatform Installer 1.1
Released!
http://groups.google.com/group/co
mp.lang.tcl/browse_frm/thread/1755bea29744452c
InstallJammer is a free, open source, multiplatform
GUI installer and builder designed to be completely
cross-platform and function on Windows and most all
version of UNIX with eventual support for Mac OS X.
This is the first major enhancement release since the
initial
1.0 release of InstallJammer over 6 months ago. It
includes
many new features and tons of bug fixes. A lot of hard
work
went into this release. I hope you enjoy it!

ANNOUNCE: TclRAL Version 0.8.1
http://groups.google.com/group/co
mp.lang.tcl/browse_frm/thread/1b6ecc1215d8b401
I'm please to announce the availability of Version 0.8.1
of TclRAL, a
relational algebra library for Tcl. Version 0.8.1 is an
incremental release
that is backward compatible at the script level. There
have been a number
of code base improvements. Several new commands were
added that experience
indicated were useful. Several commands have new
optional arguments. The
biggest new feature is relvar tracing. It is now
possible to define a trace
on a relvar and intercede in the relvar operation. A
new package
called "ralutil" is included that contains
some useful procs. The "ralutil"
package is, in places, quite experimental as subject to
interface changes.
There is no documentation yet for the
"ralutil" package, but that will come
later as the interfaces stabilize.

Thanks to Arjen Markus for his Wiki report:
The French Wiki may not see as many edits as the
international
one, but it is worth to look at it from time to time, even
if you
are not fluent in French ...
Tcl applications in French
- The page <http://wfr.tcl.tk/1096>
has a few examples of
French-spoken applications.
- Viewing HTML via Tk? Well, there is Tkhtml of course,
which
in its latest incarnation supports CSS (<http://wiki.tcl.tk/4102&g
t;)
but the "hview" script is a nice wrapper
(<http://wfr.tcl.tk/736>
a>)
Web things
- A simple parser for RSS - no guarantees, but it may be
of use
to you: <http://wiki.tcl.tk/17211
>
- Is Wub the successor to Tclhttpd? Well, at the very
least it is a
web server that owes a lot to Tclhttpd. Check it out for
yourself:
<http://wiki.tcl.tk/15781
>
A fistful of logic
- Puzzles are fun - even to a computer. So see if you can
beat it.
<http://wiki/tcl/tk/17666
>
- No dictionary is ever complete ... <http://wiki.tcl.tk/17686
>
presents some useful utilities for dicts.
- Producing cross tables: a whole variety of solutions.
One uses
TclRAL to deal with the data as logical relations.
<http://wiki.tcl.tk/17688
>
- Somebody mentioned the J-word on the Wiki! The even
fascinating
issue of "generators" provoked the mention of
the infamous
pair longjmp()/setjmp() - ignore that part and read the
rest:
