Description : runtime for .kit Tcl applications (Starkits)
Tclkit is a compact, single file executable containing a complete scripting
runtime, including a rich scripting language (Tcl), a high-level GUI toolkit
(Tk), a powerful object system (IncrTcl), the Tcl Virtual File System
(TclVFS), and an embedded high-performance database (Metakit).
The Debian version of Tclkit includes also support for threads and the TclX
library extension.
The tclkit interpreter is used to run Tcl applications distributed in .kit
format (Starkits). A Starkit is a wrapping mechanism for delivering a Tcl
application in a self-contained, installation-free, and portable way.
A Starpack is a special version of Starkit which combines a Starkit with
a Tclkit runtime into a single stand-alone executable file.
This package includes also the sdx.kit utility which can be used to operate
on Starkits and two simple scripts for generating Starkits and Starpacks.
Since Debian already provides regular packages for Tcl/Tk this package is
not required to run Tcl programs. However there are some cases in which you
may want to install tclkit:
- running binary Starkits downloaded from the Internet
- wrappping a Tcl/Tk application into a single stand-alone binary
or executable for distribution on systems where Tcl/Tk may not
be available
- wrapping a Tcl/Tk application which requires tclthreads or TclX
A preliminary version of the debian tclkit package can be found at:

Hello,
This is an automatic mail sent to close the ITP you have reported or
are involved with.
Your ITP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 365 days.
- It hasn't had any activity recently.
As this is an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the ITP is still of your interest, or there has been
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).
To re-open it, you simply have to mail control@bugs.debian.org
with a body text like this:
reopen 314709
thanks bts
Further comments on the work done in the bug sent to
314709@bugs.debian.org would be truly welcomed.
Anyway, if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <damog@debian.org>.
A similar process is being applied to other kind of wnpp bugs.
Thanks for your cooperation,
-- David Moreno Garza <damog@debian.org>.
