This allows various types of graphical clients for AccelNET to be written in TCL rather than writing them in C. For example one could construct a custom control panel using this facility.
It uses version 8.5a4 of the Tcl and Tk ibraries.
If no filename is present the interpreter is started with a command prompt in the same way as wish(1) operates.
The latest version of the AccelNET TCL commands are documented in db_engine_cmds_v2.notes and db_engine_mngr_cmds_v2.notes in the src directory.
Older versions of the .notes files are also kept in the src directory as db_engine_cmds_v2_<version>.notes and db_engine_mngr_cmds_v2_<version>.notes.
Eventually the commands should be made into a set of manual pages.
This program needs to have /AccelNET/tcl_v2 installed to function properly.
The older versions of the program are db_engine_tcl and db_engine_wish. These versions are available because there are known differences in behavior of the Tk libraries and possibly the Tcl library. Programs using db_engine need to be examined to ensure they function correctly with the newer version of db_engine.
modified_widgets.notes in the src directory explains the enhancements which have been made to the wish widget set.
