Macintosh Tcl is distributed in three different forms. This should
|
|
sl@0
|
34 |
make it easier to only download what you need. Substitute <version>
|
|
sl@0
|
35 |
with the version you wish to use. The packages are as follows:
|
|
sl@0
|
36 |
|
|

|
37 |
mactk<version>.sea.hqx
|
|
sl@0
|
38 |
|
|
sl@0
|
39 |
This distribution is a "binary" only release. It contains an
|
|
sl@0
|
40 |
installer program that will install a 68k, PowerPC, or Fat
|
|
sl@0
|
41 |
version of the "Tcl Shell" and "Wish" applications. In addition,
|
|
sl@0
|
42 |
it installs the Tcl & Tk libraries in the Extensions folder inside
|
|
sl@0
|
43 |
your System Folder.
|
|
