Re: [MACTCL] printf from within extension

[Linus N. <li...@el...>]

I usually do something like:

//###########
char cmd[256];
sprintf(cmd, "puts \"Hello :)\"");
Tcl_Eval(interp, cmd);
//###########

...There might be a better way, but it does the job.
There is however a difference from printf(): As with any tcl commands that use the Tcl interpreter, you should not call this code from a thread other than the event handler, but I 
guess you normally don't.

Linus
