TclPro 1.3b4 Release and Contest Announcement
5th August, 1999

We are pleased to announce the 1.3b4 release of TclPro. This beta is
effectively
a final release candidate. If no showstopper bugs are found in the meantime,
we intend to go final in a couple of weeks. The contest announced before
and described below continues. We'd particularly like feedback from people
using HP-UX 11.x as we have not previously supported that particular
version.

As you may know, TclPro includes four separate development tools.
1. TclPro Debugger: an interactive debugger for Tcl;
2. TclPro Checker: "lint" for Tcl, checks your code for common usage errors;
3. TclPro Compiler: provides code obfuscation to hide your source code;
4. TclPro Wrapper: build a single executable containing all your scripts.

TclPro 1.3b4 includes Tcl 8.2b2 and the latest versions of [incr Tcl],
Expect,
and TclX. It is able to debug scripts written using older versions of Tcl.

More details can be found at www.scriptics.com/tclpro/1.3.html


Contest
-----------

We'd like to enlist your help in testing this beta release so we're also
announcing a contest. Anyone finding a bug in TclPro 1.3b4 that is not
already
in our bug database will get a cool TclPro t-shirt. The best bug-finder,
determined by severity and quantity of bugs found, will get a free TclPro
user license ($1200 value).

Happy Bug Hunting
