Right, that is the basis of what I am doing. First there was a problem with the 64 bit version (seems fgb worked on 32 bit at the time), that was a Tcl problem. Than I moved it to a recent version of Tcl and now I am trying to get through the Tcl test suite. And as I said, that turns up some limitations. > (Also, why?)

Ok, thanks. > Yep, APE is old and quite unmaintained. I recommend looking at > https://git.sr.ht/~ft/npe . Thinks for that pointer, I have just seen that, too. It looks quite limited, though, even compared to APE. Thanks, benny
