Hi, I have written a piece of software that acts as a gateway between OSC packets, and FreeWrl's External Authoring Interface. The project was written in TCL; basically I gave up on Java and C a long time ago. The issue I now face is deployment. To deploy it on another machine, I need to download and complie the TCL-UDP library and TCLlib for checksums and UUIDs. In total it is about 800 lines of TCL (apart from OSC liibrary I had to write myself), and relies heavily of TCL features such as arrays with hashed character keys, freely moving between data types and the TCL event loop to handle both the UDP (OSC) datagrams and the TCP socket to the EAI. Is this project a candidate for a novice (to q-lang) to re-write in q-lang ? Would the deployment in q-lang be any easier, ie just a language engine download and an application download ?
