Tcl/Tk for native Windows x64?

[Sergio Ramirez]

Folks:

Is Tcl/Tk available for Windows x64 (2003 server 64 or XP-64) as native
64-bit binaries? I've seen Active Tcl's website but they don't mention
64-bit windows.

I'm porting a 32-bit signal processing program (huge beast) written in C
that uses curses for input, and I'm evaluating what to use for porting. I
can't find a suitable x64 implementation of curses, so I'm checking other
options. My target platforms are Win32, native x64 Windows, and Solaris
(probably Linux in a couple of years), so I need a GUI method available on
all those platforms. If you have any suggestions I'll appreciate it

Get the Microsoft Windows Platform SDK and install it. Open the build
environment for Windows XP 64 bit retail (there are a bunch of similar
options installed into the start menus). Now go and build tcl using
the win/makefile.vc build script.

I have an example of a Win64-amd64 tclkit at

which you might like to try out.

OK, Thanks. I'll try that. I think we've found an alternate option (write
a mini-curses using the console API and continue to use curses in Solaris),
but will try Tcl/Tk anyways.
