Re: Checksum

I'm a newbie to TCL. When I add the command "package require cksum",
I get the error "can't find package cksum." Is there a file I should
add to the server? If so, do you know where I can download it?

I'm trying to get a network operations software package called Priisms
to display alarm messages on an LED marquee. The command to change
the text on the sign is a series of hex numbers with a 16-bit checksum
at the end.

You might need to add "package require cksum" to your code as well. It's
unfortunate that you need to do "package require cksum" but the commands
actually live in the crc namespace.

Out of curiosity, what's the point of this exercise? Is it homework?
