TclTk Aqua Batteries-Included 8.4.9.1 is a binary distribution of the Mac OS X native Tcl/Tk and over fifty popular extensions.
This page lists all software packages included in the TclTk Aqua BI 8.4.9.1 distribution.
Install Locations
- The Tcl/Tk libraries are installed as frameworks into /Library/Frameworks (including debug versions of library binaries).
- The 'tclsh' and 'wish' command line tools are installed into /usr/bin and a link to the Wish application is installed into /Applications/Utilities.
- The Tcl/Tk documentation is contained in html format inside the frameworks, and is also installed as manpages into /Library/Tcl/man (optional).
- All other files in the distribution (the "Batteries-Included" part), are installed entirely into subdirectories of /Library/Tcl and can be uninstalled by removing that directory.
- BI command line tools such as 'expect' are located in /Library/Tcl/bin; for them to be accessible from Terminal without giving a full path, this directory needs to be added to the shell path; e.g. for tcsh, by adding the following to ~/.login:
set path = ( ${path} /Library/Tcl/bin ) - BI documentation in manpage format is located in /Library/Tcl/man, this directory is searched automatically by 'man' if the shell path has been adjusted as detailed above.
Documentation in other formats is installed into /Library/Tcl/docs. - Many packages come with sample code and demos, they are located in /Library/Tcl/demos.
TclTkAquaBI Details
This distribution was built on 4/May/2005 from the latest sources available at the time:
Most packages are built from the HEAD of their CVS repositories as of 2005-05-01 00:00:00 GMT (or from the latest tarballs where there is no CVS access), see cvsTag.conf for details; with some patches applied.
All code in this distribution was compiled with the latest Apple developer tools for Mac OS X 10.3, and will in general not run on earlier version of Mac OS X.
The tools used to build the distribution (including the installer packages & disk images) are available, as well as archives of the exact (unpatched) sources used to build the distribution.
Also at that location are individual tarballs of the binaries and installer packages contained in the distribution; additionally, this contains binaries of Tcl & Tk/X11 built in the standard unix style into /usr/local.
The Tcl/Tk Aqua 8.5a3 alpha release is installed in addition to 8.4.9.1; both releases coexist peacefully inside the Tcl/Tk frameworks. The default binaries continue to be 8.4, e.g. tclsh is tclsh8.4, and Tcl.framework/Tcl is 8.4; but tclsh8.5, wish8.5, Tcl.framework/Versions/8.5/Tcl etc. are also available, as is the html documentation for 8.5.
Note the presence in the distribution of both Tclkit and the new Wishkit, which allows the running of starkits under either Tk/X11 or Tk/Aqua.
The TclTkAquaBI distribution uses the standard Apple Installer, allowing users to install all or only some of the packages included. The installer is also easily adapted to include only a subset of the bundled packages for building customized distributions.
