Tcl/Tk 8.4.7

A portable scripting environment for Unix, Windows, and Macintosh.

About:
Tcl provides a portable scripting environment for Unix, Windows, and
Macintosh that supports string processing and pattern matching, native
file system access, shell-like control over other programs, TCP/IP
networking, timers, and event-driven I/O. Tcl has traditional programming
constructs like variables, loops, procedures, namespaces, error handling,
script packages, and dynamic loading of DLLs. Tk provides portable GUIs on
UNIX, Windows, and Macintosh. A powerful widget set and the concise
scripting interface to Tk make it a breeze to develop sophisticated user
interfaces.

Changes:
The [http::config -urlencoding] option was added. The exit was cleaned up
and memory leaks were corrected when using the threaded memory allocator
and reinitializing. The build configuration on 64-bit systems was
improved. Read support for PPM/PGM with the -data option was added. An
issue with displaying the maximize window button on KDE-3.2.1 was
corrected. Drawing of Unicode characters in menu titles on Windows was
fixed. Tk clipboard data is correctly posted to the Windows clipboard on
exit. The implementation of the CG version of the X drawing emulation
layer on Mac OS X was completed. Several Mac OS X usability issues were
fixed.
