Re: Is it time for another Tcl/Tk book?

Dr. Ousterhout's classic, Tcl and the Tk Toolkit, is being updated to
cover Tcl/Tk 8.5. Google " Tcl/Tk Books updated for 8.5" for more
info. My guess is that it will cover #1 on your list really well, and
#5 to some extent.

You may also be interested in the "official" Tcl tutorial:
http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/tutorial/tcltutorial.html

I think everyone would be in favor of high-quality, open-access
material covering any or all of the topics on your list.
