Hi folks,

I agree with Steve that using namespace would be more sensible for the Tcl
implementation (even if not crucial).

In fact, overriding Tcl calls by a modified version of the API for integration
of undo was also the way I intended using AG into Transcriber (cf our LREC paper:

http://www.etca.fr/CTA/gip/Projets/Transcriber/articles/Transcriber-LREC2000.ps.gz

) but it is still work in progress :-(

Anyway Steve: I have also some Tcl code and tests on tracing AG modifs so I
could share it... I only need to clean up a bit that piece of code!

Best,
   Claude
