Subject: New Tcl release
Under separate cover I've given Leo the current version of the Tcl
interpreter, hopefully he'll reply shortly that there were no problems
committing. =-)

Checked with a CVS checkout of a few minutes ago, all tests (still)
pass. (Thanks, Bernhard - the spirit of your patch is still there,
though some of the particulars are different.)

Feedback welcome. As are more patches. As would a pointer to a tcl
distro of the early 7 vintage whose test suite I might have a prayer of
passing a small portion of. =-)

 From the CHANGELOG:

2004-03-15

         * More builtin procs supported, notably:
                 proc, expr, for, format,
                 while, break, continue, return, source
         * Initial expr support
                 Decimal operands, most operators, most builtin math
funcs,
                 precedence, parens for grouping
         * split __parse into separate parse/interpret stages
         * Use improved imcc syntax where possible
         * more tests
         * changed substitution macro mess to pcc sub mess
         * support various return codes (TCL_OK, TCL_ERROR, etc.)
         * cleaned up examples/

Bad form to self-reply, I know, but I found the old distros at

http://sourceforge.net/project/
showfiles.php?group_id=10894&package_id=10452

Sadly, I'm still missing enough various procs it'll take me a while to  
run the harness.

Looks like it'll be easier to get going for 7.6p2 than the latest rev,  
however.
