Tcl packages

Post by ppslim »

After coming up witht he brainbox idea of making a web-site, in pure Tcl, I decided to go a little further, and do SSI and PHP style inline coding.

Using a "AddHandler" and "Action" directive, I was able to use a Tcl script to parse .html files in a dir called (gosh) /tcl-bin/. Basiable, outputting text in the file, and processiong commands between "<?TCL" and "TCL?>" (how original). This did save me the need to use any apache modules.

However, I am after certain support now for the script, including DB interaction, SNMP walking, FTP abstraction, proxied (socks 4, 5 www proxy) sockets and SSL comms.

These are all obtainable from downloads on the tcl.tk site.

One that is not available is a GD image creation and manipulation library. A link is provided on the tcl.tk site, but it is outdated.

Can any1 help me locate a GD image manipulation package for Tcl. I am using fly for the moment, but this is not ideal, and actualy requires a great deal of overhead.
