[TCLCORE] nmake build changes

[<apn...@ya...>]

I'm making a couple of (minor, I think) changes to the nmake build system

 

*	making the build less verbose, so it does not output so much trace
information during builds that hides real issues. Add "verbose" to OPTS to
get back the old behavior.
*	more important, static libraries for *packages* are now installed by
default into the same location as Tcl's static libraries. That makes much
more sense to me for building applications that link statically and reflects
Unix conventions.

 

Hope no one objects. Probably, no one other than Harald or Phil will care
but just in case... :-)

 

With the above and TIP 755, I'm very close to be being able to build a fully
statically linked tcl and wish shells with sqlite, thread, twapi etc. No
more writing DLL's to disk and cleaning up. The downside to single file
executables - Microsoft Defender flags the build as some Bear!xx CVE virus.
Used to happen  with tclkits in 8.6 as well. Not sure what the solution is
there.
