> The version of Inferno I know about doesn't have tcl, it has tk.
It has Tk, but it also has the command wish(1), which is described as 'a Tcl command line interface to the Limbo/Tk graphics toolkit.' The 'BUGS' section of the manpage states 'Arguably this has been superseded by sh-tk(1) ... and tkcmd(1) ...'
There is also a tclsh command (i.e. Tcl without Tk), but I could not find a manpage for this, or for the tcl core module that it uses. I am running the 3rd Edition Inferno build of 31 May 2002, which IIRC I loaded from the 4th Edition Plan 9 CD.
I couldn't find the source for Inferno's Tcl core module, so perhaps it is not part of the free Inferno download: can anyone confirm this? If it is not, then perhaps the forthcoming Inferno licensing changes might be to our advantage.
Perhaps someone who knows more about Inferno than I do could comment.
Keith.
