Bryan Oakley managed to hijack the newsgroup this week for a lengthy exchange on how best to provide usable documentation; some good insights if you're into that sort of thing. Megawidget fans can also enjoy the thread on how to provide the best support for building new widgets.
- Freshmeat is an extremely popular service you can use to announce your Tcl extensions (and other software) specifically to Linux users http://freshmeat.net/appindex/development/tcl-extensions.html
- Sean Woods posted a Tcl channel driver for accessing serial ports on the Macintosh (see DN441770632)
- Bryan Oakley kicks off a discussion about using a Tk text widget dump as a quick-loading documentation viewer, in conjunction with XML, man pages, Windows help and others (thread [2]) (thread [3])
- The "Widget Wish List" thread also brought up many issues with regard to megawidget implementation approaches (thread [4])
- Scott Stanton describes how "file extension" will be corrected in upcoming Tcl releases (see DN439952701)
- David Welton released mod_dtcl, an Apache module allowing you to add Tcl code to your HTML pages (see DN439641798)
