tclhtml tar archive - Last updated 08-Aug-98
This is a snapshot of the contents of
(as at 08-Aug-98)
- a number of useful references for TCL/Tk in a form
publishable by a Web Server and readable by a Web Browser.
The html pages have NOT been made "Netscape reliant".
Changes since the last upload include
Synchonisation to that of Web Pages on tclburn - the Tcl/Tk Consortium CD.
Addition of History and Copying release docs.
Updated FAQ pages
Replacement of the Tcl7.4 and Tk4.0 Beta (B2) manual pages with the
final release manual pages
New Sections and data, some more rearrangement
more URLS from various sources...
Probably the most useful parts are a mirror of the TCL/TK FAQ
and html versions of the TCL and Tk man pages.
INSTALLATION
1) Get a hold of this tar archive - tclhtml.tar
2) tar it off somewhere
cd mytclInfo; tar xvf tclhtml.tar
3) Make a link from your current html files to the top level html
entry file Tcl.html (or access it directly)
e.g. assuming installation in dir mytclInfo which is accessable from server
myhttpserver.com the URL would be

Below are the man page hierarchy roots - I've not listed or
described all the files as that would be very pointless -
Basically the directory contents have TOC equivalent html files
and subdirs corresponding to a Tcl/Tk, ScriptCmd/API/
UserCommand partitioning. The contents of those subdirs
are each file in the original distributions man pages
automatically converted to html and crosslinked
(with varying degress of success).
[The first two used some homegrown scripts I did, man3 used
a script set from Tom Davis
and the last 2 ( 8.*) used the ELF scripts from
www.elf.org which are what I'd reccomend to anyone else]

I've been trying to head toward a layout for the Web Page by info category
- this stuff has all grown agglutinatively so its a bit of a mess wrt
a nice clear breakdown into subdirs
- /HOWTO - How to Do various (specific) things
- /Fragments - Tcl and Tcl script code fragments for useful or
commonly requested things
- /Examples - stand alone examples of how to use some aspect of
Tcl capability
- /Guides - Docs describing (generally) how some specific funstionality
can be used and/or should be used
- /htmlman - htmlised man pages
- FAQ (tcl-faq)
- /internals - Info about how/what various Tcl/Tk Internals work/do - more
for extension writers amd core extendors than rest of this stuff
- /xtnReadmes - htmlised READMES from various extensions with
links to real extesion Web site
- /proc - Conferences/Meetings/Bof/Workshop Writeups
- /announce - Announcements ( more for Historical interest than anything el$
- /other - where my categorisation imagination fails
FOLLOWUP
