    Sorry to be dense, but how do you download the full source?
    I have setup-wits-3.0.25(32 bit).exe, but that appears to be just the .exe, a .dll and License.rtf.

    In the code tab I get completely lost.

    TIA for more detailed tcl/tk source download help.

    Hmm, strange. I thought sourceforge had a link that let you directly download a tarball/zipfile of the sources, but I don't see it now. I guess they expect you to use the source control system to get sources. You will need to install a Mercurial client (google for TortoiseHg). After installing, follow the direction on the code tab (hg clone blah blah). That will create a local source repository for you.

    If you have trouble, let me know and I'll make up a zipfile and upload it somewhere

    Actually, even simpler if you just want source and not the whole build environment - if you have installed Wits, in the main window left pane, click on the "Wits console" link in the tools and options pane. This will bring up a Tcl console. In that console type the command:

    file copy [info nameofexecutable] c:/temp/wits-source
    

    (Note use /, not \ in case you don't know Tcl)
    This will create the directory c:\temp\wits-source with all the WiTS source code.

    Thanks! It may be Monday before I can try again, but I definitely will.

    I have been working on a Expect scripts for a few weeks and now I'm ready to take the plunge with TK for a GUI front end. From what I've seen of WiTS it should be a huge help to jump start my efforts.

    Thanks for your excellent contribution.

    If you are looking to use the GUI bits on Unix, it will take some "massaging". There is some Windows specific stuff in there that's needed to get the themeing right.

    The file copy alternative worked. I'll start with that. Thanks again.

    Could you clarify what you mean by "wifi does not work" ? You mean network connections over wifi do not show up ? Please elaborate or file a bug report

    If Network works, then even Wi-Fi does work. No problem here.
    Also, for Tcl/TK, which version is recommended?

     
  • Ashok P. Nadkarni

    WiTS is distributed as a binary executable that includes Tcl/Tk. If you want to build yourself, you need Tcl/Tk 8.6

    Every time I download WITS it brings up a download for PDF reader. Should I download this also?

     
  • Ashok P. Nadkarni

    Not sure which link you are downloading from but the WiTS download does not need any other downloads. Unfortunately some sites display misleading buttons and links.
