[Plplot-devel] Prescriptions for running tkdemos.tcl under wish and tcldemos.tcl under tclsh

[Alan W. I. <ir...@be...>]

I just made an easy fix to the version problem (5.1.0 is now returned from
package require wish command rather than the incorrect 4.99 that was
returned previously).

I will repeat the prescriptions again from my last post with this subject to
remind the tcl/tk experts to try this.  Also, please note the final
paragraph.

Here is the wish/tkdemos.tcl prescription from plplot/tmp:

wish

load drivers/tkd_drv.so Pltk
package require Pltk
source tkdemos.tcl

1
2
3
.....

Here is the tclsh/tcldemos.tcl prescription from plplot/tmp:

tclsh

load ./libplplottcltkd.so.5.1.0 Pltcl
package require Pltcl
plinit
source tcldemos.tcl

1
2
3
.....

Also some changes will have to be done to the files which set up tcl/tk so
that the package require commands will work without the prior load commands
both for the plplot/tmp and installed versions.  However, I will leave that
internal tcl/tk configuration issue to the tcl/tk experts here.
