location of Tclextensions?

[Joachim K. <ko...@ma...>]

Hello all,

I am unhappy with the location of the folder
Tclextensions inside the AlphaTcl folder.
It is not a part of AlphaTcl, and it is not
in the repository either.  From the viewpoint
of SVN it is a foreign element.  It means for
example that if you want to checkout AlphaTcl 
from scratch it is NOT possible just to delete
the AlphaTcl folder and invoke Checkout -- 
that will lose you the extensions, and Alpha
will not even start up!  So you should have
moved the Tclextension out first, then trash
the folder, then checkout, and finally more the
extensions back in!

I would suggest the Tclextensions folder is
moved up one level so that it becomes sibling
with AlphaTcl.

I am aware that this way require a change in 
the core, but perhaps now is a good time to
make this change?  What do you think?

Of course, I expect there are many issues I
have overlooked, by ignorance.

Cheers,
Joachim.
