Re: Extensive Cheat *** for Tcl/Tk

I wonder how related this is to the printed tcl/tk reference guide
created by Dave Bodenstab, Paul Raines, Jeff Tranter, based on Johan
Vromans work in perl.

The previous work was more oriented towards a TeX/LaTeX type series of
files and generated a really nice hard copy booklet with similar
information.
Alas, the tkref files appear to have last been updated in 2003, so
there are quite a few additions needed to them.



All of the TeX files are available as source, and I am totally open
to accepting patches/additions. Since I updated Paul Raines' version
to Tcl 8.4.3, I have received patches from at most 3 people. I
personally have not upgraded to 8.5 (I will wait until 8.5 becomes
the "official" release.) I produced my version of the tcl/tk
reference for my use, and was happy to share that effort. Perhaps,
if I find the time and motivation, I will update it when I finally
move to 8.5. Again, anyone is free to contribute... or take over...
I have made a few changes (up to 8.4.9) beyond what I released, but
nothing significant enough to release a new package. Contact me
if you're interested.

BTW, the reference at http://home.houston.rr.com/brianohagan/tcl_tk_ref_guide.html
*is* very nice, but a booklet is handy too.
