Subject: Dr. Dobb's Tcl-URL! - weekly Tcl news and links (Aug 14)
From: "Hall, Leam" <LHall@rosenbluth.com>

    Getting documentation for a program is often under-attended
    or unfunded.  Sébastien Barré gives an in-depth
    comparison of three good parsers that create html documents
    of existing scripts.

    Neil Zanella shows how to use the Tcl/Tk web plug-in with
    HTML 4.01 compliant tags.

    with Right-to-Left languages:

    Peter De Rijk poses a question about the development of the
    new compound list command that leads to a good bit of discussion
    and comment. Start at:

For the Newbies:
    Dan Kuchler gives a couple example-based pointers on good
    programming style:

    Tom Wilkason solves a problem and explains a little bit about
    global variables and the upvar command.
