Subject: README: Tcl-URL! - the weekly guide to Tcl resources (Apr 19)
Date: 27 Apr 1999 08:20:01 -0700

This is my first week on the Tcl-URL! team so bear with me as I explore
better ways summarizing the activity on c.l.t.

    Nice example of tcLex use:
        http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=467060976

    If you don't like Tcl's syntax and/or semantics, it usually
    takes only a few lines to change them.

    Wise counsel on programming a parallel port:
        http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=467090709

    Example of how to save a snapshot of a window:

    Impassioned discussions of Scriptics and the Tcl Community as
    we collectively figure out how to all work more productively together.
    (Starts off as a discussion of threads and Tcl)
        http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=464078840

    Have a look at the thread named "RFC: TkGS: the Tk Graphics Subsystem".
    It tries to address device-independent graphics operations from Tk (eg.
    transparent access to displays and printers).

    Building self contained Tcl executables:
        http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=466528211

    Discussion of the practical limits of Tcl/Tk (digresses a bit):
        http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=466088326

    Interesting digression on different styles of licensing: -

    Utilizing threads in Tcl8.1b3 - beware those critical sections!

    Performing HTTP authorization:
