1. The introductory papers on Tcl and Tk by Dr. J. Ousterhout are
available at <URL:ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/doc/tclUsenix90.ps>,
<URL:ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/doc/tkUsenix91.ps>,
<URL:ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/doc/tkF10.ps>. (The last
of these files is the contents of Figure 10 of the Tk paper).
The examples from the Ousterhout book are available in one large
file as <URL:ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/doc/book.examples.Z>.
A series of PostScript slides used in an introduction/tutorial on
Tcl and Tk at several X and Usenix Conferences are available as
<URL:ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/doc/tut.tar.Z>. Dr. Ousterhout
has written an engineering style guide that describes the coding,
documentation, and testing conventions that are used in Tcl and
has graciously made it available to other Tcl/Tk developers. It is
located at <URL:ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/doc/engManual.tar.Z>.
Feedback is welcome, but specifics concerning actual conventions
are unlikely to change. Primarily there is room for changes on the
presentation itself, as well as additional conventions which should be
present but are not. Notes pointing to a conflict between a stated
convention and Tcl or Tk base code are of interest. Send comments
to Dr. Ousterhout <URL:mailto:ouster@scriptics.com>. The Tcl team
maintains the WWW page <URL:http://www.scriptics.com/> for holding
answers to Tcl questions, pointers to the software distributions,
current status of Tcl/Tk development, release information on
Tcl and Tk, and pointers to a few other places on the Web with
Tcl/Tk info. There is also pointers to slide presentations made at
the Symposium on Very High Level Languages and papers concerning
intelligent agents on the Internet. John's own WWW pages are now
found at <URL:http://www.scriptics.com/people/john.ousterhout/>.

From: FAQ General information
Subject: -VIII- Are there any mailing lists covering topics related to Tcl/Tk?
There are quite a number of mailing lists which cover topics
relating to the Tcl community. As you begin one, if you will send
me information relating to the mailing list, I will add it below.

BLT is a Tk widget set with a variety of useful features.
A mailing list for BLT developers has been created for the discussion
of BLT development issues. It may be a useful forum for those who are
currently working on BLT (developing, maintaining, bug fixing, etc).
If you are interested, please subscribe.

o Canvas Visitor
This is a mailing list setup up for sharing information about
the visitors extension as well as any other extensions
(preferably) related to the tk canvas widget.
The visitors extension was made to enable users to add
operations on canvas graphics items without having to
constantly be changing the Tk core to do so (yes it required a
core change :-). There is a sample visitor included in the
release which performs coord rotation on each specified canvas
item. This may be used as an example for further visitors.
Future releases may also included contributed visitors (please
share your ideas) and a working C API to creating canvas
items.
To sign up, send email to <URL:mailto:Majordomo@pgw.on.ca>
with the following command in the body of your email message:

From: FAQ General information
Subject: -IX- Where can I find the FAQ and who do I contact for more
information about it?
I am going to attempt to keep a copy of this file up to date on
<URL:ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/languages/tcl/sorted/info/faq/> in files
named tcl-faq.part0[1-5]. Make sure you pick up the newest ones
there. There are mirrors of the user contribution archive site
maintained elsewhere - for instance, it appears that huji, denet, luth,
obspm, th-darmstadt, sunsite, univie all have some portion of the user
contrib archives available. Also, I will be posting it on a regular
basis to at least comp.lang.tcl, news.answers, and comp.answers. I
also plan on trying to keep pointers to HTML versions of the FAQs at
<URL:http://www.teraform.com/%7Elvirden/tcl-faq/>.
Many FAQs, including this one, are available on the archive
site <URL:ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news/answers/>. The subdirectory and
name under which a FAQ is archived appears in the Archive-name line at
the top of the article. For example, this part of the comp.lang.tcl
FAQ is archived as
<URL:ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news/answers/tcl-faq/part2.Z>.
There is a Northern European archive for the FAQ at
<URL:ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/usenet/news.answers/comp.lang.tcl/>
as well as a French location for the FAQ at
<URL:ftp://hplyot.obspm.fr/tcl/tcl.FAQ.gz>.
There is also a mail server from which you can obtain a copy of
the FAQ. Send an email message to <URL:mailto:mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu> or
<URL:mailto:archive-server@nic.switch.ch> with the word help in the body of
the message to find out how to use it.
Also, this FAQ is available from within gopher (by looking at
any one of the gopher holes presenting news.answers or FAQ lists), from
WAIS servers (such as the comp.lang.tcl.src), from a number of sites
which have available via ftp archives of news.answers and comp.answers
(use archie to locate one of these sites available around the world),
and probably other resources as well.

Various Uniform Resource Locator (URL) ids for the
comp.lang.tcl FAQ exist. My personal copy is found at
<URL:http://www.teraform.com/%7Elvirden/tcl-faq/>. The user can use a
WorldWideWeb (WWW) client to access the Tcl FAQ from this point.
Another FAQ page is
<URL:http://www.lib.ox.ac.uk/internet/news/faq/comp.lang.tcl.html>.
Yet another is
<URL:http://www.cs.ruu.nl/wais/html/na-bng/comp.lang.tcl.html>.
A WWW URL where the FAQ is treated simply as one
long scrollable document (suitable for doing a search against, for
instance) is <URL:http://realsoon.wpi.edu:8080/faqs/tcl.FAQ>
though there are reports that this server is not responding to HTTP
requests.
A archive of the newsgroup is available from
<URL:ftp://olive.kek.jp/pub/tcl/News/> where the archive is organized
by collecting each month's worth of postings into its own file. This
archive has been kept since January 1993.
There is a Tcl room on Internet Relay Chat (IRC). Contact
Don Lindsay <URL:mailto:don@metroatlanta.com> for details on the #TCL room.
The FAQs also can be found in many of the various archives for
<URL:news:comp.lang.tcl> as well as mirrors of the neosoft ftp site.
I must warn you though that in many cases, the copies of the FAQs
found around the internet are woefully out of date. The teraform
web site is the authority location and should be available to all.
Let me know when you find the FAQ in new and unusual locations
so I can update this resource guide!

Another archive is available as <URL:ftp://olive.kek.jp/pub/tcl/News/>
and is stored as a series of monthly archives. It is maintained by
<URL:mailto:kusano@maple.kek.jp> (Kazuro Furukawa). Archives for 1992-1996,
as well as for January thru April 1997 ar available.
Another such site is
<URL:http://hepunx.rl.ac.uk/mlists/comp.lang.tcl/comp.lang.tcl.html>,
which covers from December 1993 through April of 1996 (with what
appears to be various holes in coverage).
One way to access old <URL:news:comp.lang.tcl> articles is to
get one of the published CD-ROMs. CD ROM World's 1993 CD-ROM claims to
include 40 meg of articles. InfoMagic's 1996 Tcl/Tk CD-ROM makes the
same claim.
More interesting ways to access a portion of the newsgroup are
<URL:http://ecsdg.lu.se/cgi-bin/wwwnntp?comp.lang.tcl> and a number of
the USENET interactive archive sites. The first gives you access to a
small number of recent news articles. The latter includes
<URL:http://www.dejanews.com/> (which uses Tcl to do its processing),
<URL:http://www.reference.com/> (which provides 'active queries' which
email you when new items which match items of interest appear), or
<URL:http://www.altavista.digital.com/> or <URL:http://www.infoseek.com/>.
These give one the ability to search the articles posted over past
months. AltaVista appears to have a 2-3 month archive while the others
go back a bit further.
At <URL:http://hornet.mmg.uci.edu/cgi-bin/nph-fwais.pl>, one gets the
opportunity to do WAIS searching against various databases, one of
which appears to be the comp.lang.tcl newsgroup.
