TCL WWW Info

These pages are an index to a set of TCL/Tk references on the WWW presented as something of an Information Overview. I've concentrated on Link sites distinct from the Tcl/Tk archive so if you are after a particular Tcl/Tk document/extension or distribution (probably on the Tcl Archive site) you may get faster results by using Wade Holst's WWW Tcl/Tk Resources Service

If you want local copies of any of these pages for your own use, the entire tree plus the scripts I use to create them is archived on ftp.aud.alcatel.com/tcl/docs :
tclhtml.README
tclhtml.tar.gz.

If you find any additional WWW references that you think would be useful to have here please tell me about it.
I'll take e-mail ( hops@sco.com) or a very loud yell.
