What useful applications have we found?
There are a lot of pre-written Tcl applications, that is, applications
written in Tcl/Tk or in C using the Tcl/Tk libraries. We use a few of
these too:
- tkinspect
- Fantastic debugging tool for Tk code, a necessity for anyone who wants
to write anything ambitious using Tk.
- make-a-wish
- This handy tool does most of the work for you when building tcl and
wish extensions. Juggling makefiles and TclAppInit.c, etc. can be one
of the more tedious tasks, and this tool tries intelligently to automate
the process.
- ical
- This is the nicest calendar program I've seen, including those from the
- tkmail
- If you have users for whom elm isn't easy enough, try tkmail -- it
also has enough features to keep the heavy mail users happy. For those
who have really huge mail dirs, I have code for a waissearch function
from within tkmail (search 100 Mb of old mail in just a few sec).
- tkman
- It's simple, it's friendly, it makes reading manpages a lot more pleasant, it
has all the features I would have thought of and then some.
- tclrobots
- Officially I don't play games, but I have to praise this one.
To win, you must write a better tcl program than your opponents...
- xelem
- a handy X11 periodic table tool with much useful info available at a click
