Folks,

Welcome to the mailing list, Sigurd KJ1K.

Sigurd had a question on where Tcl/Tk gets installed on Linux.

Sigurd, I think the command is "wish roverlog.tcl".

Anyone else have better information? I haven't run RoverLog on Linux in a while.

Thanks,

Tom, N1MU.

I run RoverLog on Linux; all that's necessary is to set the .tcl file as executable.

chmod a+rx *.tcl

Having said that, I just noticed that (in rl 2.7.3, at least) some of the .tcl files are missing the ! in the #!/bin/sh on the first line. For modules that get started by by RoverLog itself, that's no big deal; but if you want to start a second rig.tcl to talk to your second rig, you can't do that from the command line without putting that ! back in there.
