Apologies - I just check out a fresh copy and those additions aren't
there... I must of added them myself some time ago. For some reason my
svn client (TortoiseSVN) wasn't showing the kitInit.c as locally
modified.

Sorry!

Popups in tclkit's initScript

goodwin.law...@gmail.com (Goodwin) — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 17:09:26 UT

Hi,

I've recently built tclkit based on the svn tclkit module.

There is some coded added into kitInit.c's initScript string:

"tk_messageBox -message \"main found here: [file join [info
nameofexe] main.tcl]\"\n"
"tk_messageBox -message \"file isfile: [file isfile [file join
[info nameofexe] main.tcl]]\"\n"

Thanks - if I can get this, I will try yet again to build a version.

I have a kitgen tree that builds on solaris 10 - I imagine it will
build on solaris 8 as well. If you like I can tar up the tree and let
you have it. All I do is:
sh config.sh 8.5/solaris-sparc thread mk cli gui
cd 8.5/solaris-sparc
env CC=gcc MAKE=gmake gmake

ISO: full (original style) tclkit 8.5.x for sparc solaris 2.8?

lvir...@gmail.com (lvirden) — Thu, 29 May 2008 19:30:12 UT

I am wondering whether anyone knows of an original style tclkit 8.5.x
(that is, containing metakit, itcl, etc.) built for SPARC Solaris 8?

The tclkit on equi4 is, I suspect, built against solaris 10, and so
needs libraries I don't have available.

I've not been able to build tclkit for some time, due to a variety of

FYI, I've posted a comment about a new way to create and share re-
usable Tcl code on another mailing list, you can read it here if
you're interested:

Also I should note that the "Create Mac application package" option
attempts to insert a line of code in main.tcl of the output starpack
to strip the Carbon process serial number argument from argv (per
[link]). This may fail depending how
the starkit is set up. As a work-around, you can still build an Aqua

I'm still not sure what the problem was, but I tried a slightly older
Windows tclkit from Equi 4 (8.4.16) and it appears to work. I've
updated the post again to include a screenshot and download link for
the Windows version ([link]).

Thanks,

[snip]
Some of the windows tclkit executables use vqtcl instead of mk4tcl for
the metakit interface. If you use one of the vqtcl exes
(tclkit-gui.exe or tclkit-cli.exe) then it can't merge vfs trees - you
need mk4tcl for that (tclkit.exe or tclkitsh.exe) .
This may or may not be the problem.

I made a little utility based on SDX for making Starpacks. I wrote it
mostly for practice and for my own convenience, but perhaps it will be
useful for others.

No. You still place your modified ico file in the root of the vfs
tree. However, the one that is built into the tclkit executable and
therefore is the one that you are replacing is from
kitgen/files/tclkit.ico.
The sdx utility has for some time been able to replace the version
resource strings in the same way that it can replace the icon
