-1. Introduction
----------------
-Tcl provides a powerful platform for creating integration applications that
-tie together diverse applications, protocols, devices, and frameworks.
-When paired with the Tk toolkit, Tcl provides the fastest and most powerful
-way to create GUI applications that run on PCs, Unix, and Mac OS X.
-Tcl can also be used for a variety of web-related tasks and for creating
-powerful command languages for applications.
-
-Tcl is maintained, enhanced, and distributed freely by the Tcl community.
-Source code development and tracking of bug reports and feature requests
-takes place at:
-
- http://core.tcl.tk/
-
-Tcl/Tk release and mailing list services are hosted by SourceForge:
-
- http://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/
-
-with the Tcl Developer Xchange hosted at:
-
- http://www.tcl.tk/
-
-Tcl is a freely available open source package. You can do virtually
-anything you like with it, such as modifying it, redistributing it,
-and selling it either in whole or in part. See the file
-"license.terms" for complete information.
-
-2. Documentation
-----------------
-
-Extensive documentation is available at our website.
-The home page for this release, including new features, is
- http://www.tcl.tk/software/tcltk/8.6.html
-
-Detailed release notes can be found at the file distributions page
-by clicking on the relevant version.
- http://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/files/Tcl/
-
-Information about Tcl itself can be found at
- http://www.tcl.tk/about/
-
-There have been many Tcl books on the market. Many are mentioned in the Wiki:
- http://wiki.tcl.tk/_/ref?N=25206
-
-To view the complete set of reference manual entries for Tcl 8.6 online,
-visit the URL:
- http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.6/
-
-2a. Unix Documentation
-----------------------
-
-The "doc" subdirectory in this release contains a complete set of
-reference manual entries for Tcl. Files with extension ".1" are for
-programs (for example, tclsh.1); files with extension ".3" are for C
-library procedures; and files with extension ".n" describe Tcl
-commands. The file "doc/Tcl.n" gives a quick summary of the Tcl
-language syntax. To print any of the man pages on Unix, cd to the
-"doc" directory and invoke your favorite variant of troff using the
-normal -man macros, for example
-
- ditroff -man Tcl.n
-
-to print Tcl.n. If Tcl has been installed correctly and your "man" program
-supports it, you should be able to access the Tcl manual entries using the
-normal "man" mechanisms, such as
-
- man Tcl
-
-2b. Windows Documentation
--------------------------
-
-The "doc" subdirectory in this release contains a complete set of Windows
-help files for Tcl. Once you install this Tcl release, a shortcut to the
-Windows help Tcl documentation will appear in the "Start" menu:
-
- Start | Programs | Tcl | Tcl Help
-
-3. Compiling and installing Tcl
--------------------------------
-
-There are brief notes in the unix/README, win/README, and macosx/README about
-compiling on these different platforms. There is additional information
-about building Tcl from sources at
-
- http://www.tcl.tk/doc/howto/compile.html
-
-4. Development tools
----------------------------
-
-ActiveState produces a high quality set of commercial quality development
-tools that is available to accelerate your Tcl application development.
-Tcl Dev Kit builds on the earlier TclPro toolset and provides a debugger,
-static code checker, single-file wrapping utility, bytecode compiler and
-more. More information can be found at
-
- http://www.ActiveState.com/Tcl
-
-5. Tcl newsgroup
-----------------
-
-There is a USENET news group, "comp.lang.tcl", intended for the exchange of
-information about Tcl, Tk, and related applications. The newsgroup is a
-great place to ask general information questions. For bug reports, please
-see the "Support and bug fixes" section below.
-
-6. Tcl'ers Wiki
----------------
-
-A Wiki-based open community site covering all aspects of Tcl/Tk is at:
-
- http://wiki.tcl.tk/
-
-It is dedicated to the Tcl programming language and its extensions. A
-wealth of useful information can be found there. It contains code
-snippets, references to papers, books, and FAQs, as well as pointers to
-development tools, extensions, and applications. You can also recommend
-additional URLs by editing the wiki yourself.
-
-7. Mailing lists
-----------------
-
-Several mailing lists are hosted at SourceForge to discuss development or
-use issues (like Macintosh and Windows topics). For more information and
-to subscribe, visit:
-
- http://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/
-
-and go to the Mailing Lists page.
-
-8. Support and Training
-------------------------
-
-We are very interested in receiving bug reports, patches, and suggestions
-for improvements. We prefer that you send this information to us as
-tickets entered into our tracker at:
-
- http://core.tcl.tk/tcl/reportlist
-
-We will log and follow-up on each bug, although we cannot promise a
-specific turn-around time. Enhancements may take longer and may not happen
-at all unless there is widespread support for them (we're trying to
-slow the rate at which Tcl/Tk turns into a kitchen sink). It's very
-difficult to make incompatible changes to Tcl/Tk at this point, due to
-the size of the installed base.
-
-The Tcl community is too large for us to provide much individual support
-for users. If you need help we suggest that you post questions to
-comp.lang.tcl. We read the newsgroup and will attempt to answer esoteric
-questions for which no one else is likely to know the answer. In addition,
-see the following Web site for links to other organizations that offer
-Tcl/Tk training:
-
- http://wiki.tcl.tk/training
-
-9. Tracking Development
------------------------
-
-Tcl is developed in public. To keep an eye on how Tcl is changing, see
- http://core.tcl.tk/
-
-10. Thank You
--------------
-
-We'd like to express our thanks to the Tcl community for all the
-helpful suggestions, bug reports, and patches we have received.
-Tcl/Tk has improved vastly and will continue to do so with your help.
