                         * Changes to Extended Tcl *
===============================================================================
13 Nov 91: Extended Tcl 6.1a released
===============================================================================
20 Nov 91: 
  o Fixed use of invalid variable when reporting an error in 
    test/unixcmds.test.
  o Changed temporary files names so they are 14 characters or less in 
    test/chmod.test.
  o Changed TCL_MAN_SECTION for SCO Unix to be "TCL" instead of "tcl".
  o Modified src/main.c to be independent of the internal Tcl include files.
  o Changed ar to not use the 'u' option in makes.
  o For ucbsrc, delete the objects explicitly from libtcl.a, since sometimes
    the modified version tclBasic.o was not replacing the standard version.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
29 Nov 91:
  o Added configuration section for older versions of SunOS.
  o Added an strtoul replacement for HP/UX, since their version accepts
    negative numbers.
  o Converted the global tclxPatchlevel from a string to an int.
  o Modified test for chmod +t, since this will actually change the file mode
    if run as root.  Changed chown tests to compare file group id against the 
    effective group id, in case tests are run with the effective group id
    changed.
  o Fixed bad error message from id command when user or group name does not
    exist.
  o Made tclSignalReceived a external flag that can be checked by C code to
    determine if signal a signal is pending.
  o Corrected the spelling of the variable 'signalReceived' that is set when
    trap code is by a signal (signal command). (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
  o Changed code in src/createExtd.c that is supposed to force math error to
    be included so that an optimizer doesn't decide to throw away the external
    reference.
  o Modified commandloop to reset command buffer when a signal is received,
    enabling interrupting the input of multi-line commands.
  o Fixed problem with math error tests were pow did not return an error on
    some systems.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
29 Nov 91: tests/all, tests/fmath.test, tests/math.test, tests/loop.test,
           tests/filescan.test
  o Converted to current test support routines: fmath.test, math.test and
    loop.test.
  o Removed tests/testutil.test, as its no longer needed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30 Nov 91:
  o Made detection of _tolower and _toupper automatic, instead of a 
    configuration option.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 2 Dec 91:
  o Updated showproc.tcl with Lance Ellinghouse's improved version that dumps
    default argument info.  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 5 Dec 91:
  o Fixed bug with doing a keylget on an empty string.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 4 Jan 92:
  o Fixed BinSearch so it doesn't overwrite the error returned by
    TclGetOpenFile with another error message.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 5 Jan 92:
  o Fixed link and unlink commands to do tilde substitution.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 9 Jan 92:
  o Fixed problem with Boyer-Moore optimization causing scanfile to fail
    matches when the regular expression contains ORs (|).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 10 Jan 92:
  o Convert execvp to execl to support passing arguments as a list, rather than
    a series of parameters.  Added a execvp to the Tcl procedure library to
    provide backwards compatibility.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 11 Jan 92: man/TclX.man
  o Changes to make some manual sections more readable.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 13 Feb 92:
  o Added `procs' option to cmdtrace that traces procedure calls only.
  o Added `-nocomplain' flag to unlink command.
  o Changed package index structure so the file name is not included in the
    index file.
  o Added support for optional #@packend, to mark end of packages.
  o Merged in changes to support A/UX 2.01 (supplied by Parag Patel)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 15 Feb 92:
  o Modified keylget to return a list of keyes in a keyed list if no field
    name is spefieied.  Added Tcl_GetKeyedListKeys to support this operation.
  o Added keyed list sub field support (i.e. FOO.BAZ).
  o Added type attribute to the values returned by the fstat command to give
    it the same functionality as the Tcl6.2 file command.
  o Update help files based on the ucb manual pages and added help for
    standard built-in variables.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 16 Feb 92:
  o Modified install script to unlink manual pages before it links to new ones.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 23 Feb 92:
  o Moved the external declaration of variables set by the startup code
    to tclExtended.h.
  o Made startup more modular to support applications like Tk.  Made setting
    of globals variables for infox in the main optional.  If not set, start up
    sets them to a default.  (All backwards compatible).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2 Mar 92:
  o Added -sym option to link command to support symbolic links.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3 Mar 92:
  o Modified keylset to take multiple keyword/value pairs.
  o Moved all tcl++.h vararg routines into tcl++.C, since inlined varargs
    don't work right with some compilers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  4 Mar 92:
  o Added catopen, catgets and catclose commands.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 11 Mar 92:
  o Combined TclShell.man and tcl.tlib.man with TclX.man to put all

    included by all Makefiles and parsed by the install script.
  o Changed all calls to cc use the $(CC) macro.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 19 Mar 92:
  o Fixed bug in command loop were certain set commands were valid commands,
    but invalid lists.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 24 Mar 92:
  o Added support for numBytes or nonewline to `read_file' procedure.

     could not be found.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13 Arp 92: 
   o Moved definition of CLK_TCK if its undefined until after the place were
     time.h might be included in tclExtdInt.h.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15 Apr 92:
   o Added TCL_TIMEZONE_VAR option for systems that don't return the timezone
     offset in `struct tm'.
   o Deleted test from tests/clock.test that returned a different result in
     a different timezone.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   o Fixed bug in fstat that caused the keyed list get of all status data
     to return invalid data.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   o Changed floating point math command to take expressions.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
18 May 92:
   o Fixed bug in lvarpop were it core dumps if passed variable containing an
     invalid list.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
28 May 92:
   o Fixed search path so it does not return an error when a path contains
     an invalid ~user.  
   o Fixed keyedlists from occasionally returning incorrect error with no
     error message when adding a field to an empty list.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Jun 92:
   o Update chmod tests to not make assumptions about what group id a file
     as created with.
   o Added support for implementations that indicate floating point errors from
     math functions by returning not-a-number, rather than calling matherr.
   o Changed cindex, crange, csubstr and replicate to take integer
     expresssions.
   o Improved documentation of Tcl_ShellEnvInit.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14 Jun 92:
   o Changed tclEdtdInt.h to use declare command executors as ANSI prototypes
     instead of being of type Tcl_CmdProc, since this broke a DEC compiler.
   o Fixed loop command so that the control variable is left at its
     terminating value, not the previous value.
   o Fixed Tcl_Startup so if used the defaultFile passed in, rather than
     assuming the compiled default value.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
28 Jun 92:
   o Fixed bug where a SIGINTR will sometimes cause the command loop to panic.
   o To speed up package library index loading, changed the .tndx file to only
     contain data, not commands to be sourced.  Added Tcl procedure to convert
     Ousterhout-style tclIndex files into package libraries.
   o Fixed problem with cmdtrace of procedures that have empty bodies.  Also
     simplified and optimized the code for tracing procedures.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30 Jun 92:
   o Fixed ShellEnvInit member function in tcl++.h.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12 Jul 92:
   o Added profile command and profrep procedure.
   o Changed alarm command to take floating point seconds and use setitimer
     when available.
   o Moved the system dependent parts of Config.mk to seperate files in a
     directory called config.  A #define in Config.mk now indicates which file
     to use.
   o Droped the -i flag from the chmod command for compatibility with Tcl open
     command changes.  Octal numbers must be prefixed with a "0".
     *** Potential compatibility problem ***
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
31 Jul 92:
   o Fix max command so it works for negative numbers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9 Aug 92:
   o Changed build of ucbsrc and tkSupport so that the modified files are
     built from the original files using sed.
   o Imporved autoloading, including not searching path if file name contains
     directories.  Demand_load searchs "auto_path" if it can't find the proc
     anywhere else, this should help Tk programs that dynamicly add directories
     to the variable.  This code moved to C to speed it up.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12 Aug 92:
   o Made message catalog table process global, so a message catalog handle
     is valid in all interpreters in a process.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
21 Aug 92:
   o Added support for building a wish with signals.
   o Fix bug where errorCode on a signal was not in the documented format.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
23 Aug 92:
   o Added lvarpush command.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 Sept 92:
   o Converted loading of Tcl library indexes from Tcl to C to speed up these
     operations.
   o Changed fcntl attributes to be named line the Posix standards:  NDELAY is
     changed to NONBLOCK and CLEXEC to CLOEXEC. Fcntl nolonger returns a list
     of current values on query, instead individule values may be queried.
     This makes it easier to use in the normal case and better allows for
     future expansion.  (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6 Sept 92:
   o Changed the signal command to return a keyed list for signal state query.
     Include the command associated with signals that are "trap".  This makes
     it easier to restore the state of signals that you change.
     (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7 Sept 92:
   o Automatically build a Tk .tlib.
   o Added installation of Extended Tk to the install script.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11 Sept 92:
   o Changed select to check read stdio buffers for pending data.  This way
     the files do not have to be unbuffered.
   o Added ability  to get a list of keys for a subfield to function
     Tcl_GetKeyedListKeys.  This necessitated adding a parameter.
     (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
   o Added kelykeys command to return lists of keys from a keyed list.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14 Sept 92:
   o Changed the fstat command to make it easier to use and more consistent
     with the file command.  This forced a syntax chang for fstat commands
     were the data is returned in an array variable.
     (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
   o Added tty option to fstat (interface to isatty).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
20 Sept 92:
   o Changed package library loading so that duplicate package names found in
     a path are loaded.
   o Added the -location options to the packages command.
   o Changed write_file to take multiple strings.
   o Added lvarcat command.
   o Reorganized Makefiles to simplify and fix some make problems.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1 Oct 92:
   o Wait command was changed to take only one pid.  This is in preparation
     for supporting full waitpid functionallity once the support has been
     added to UCB Tcl.  (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 2 Oct 92:
  o Reorganized help categories.
  o Changed floating point commands to always return floating point numbers
    without lose of precision or demotion to integer.
  o Patch the UCB tclExpr.c file to return doubles without lose of precision.
    This is temporary until a fix is povided in the UCB code.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 4 Oct 92:
  o Fixed behavior of Posix signals and SIGCHLD.
  o Added block and unblock options.
  o Added return of block state in the get option.
  o Fixed potential bug in lrmdup.
  o Process signals when encountered in the command loop rather than just clear
    them.
  o Stored the "wrong # args: " string in a single global  variable to save
    memory rather than repeating in each command.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 5 Oct 92:
  o Fixed bug in for_recursive_glob with continue and break not working as
    expected.
  o Delete chamge bar macros when installing manual pages.
  o Changed startup so if no longer looks for a local TCLDEFAULT file.  Initial
    tests are now run by setting the environment variable.
  o Fixed bug in chmod were set permissions for two difference classes (u,g,o)
    with = in the same command did not work.
  o Changed help and buildhelp.tcl so that multiple brief files are allowed
    (extension .brf).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 7 Oct 92:
  o Signal handling changed so that if multiple signals are received before
    before they are handle and if trap code is associated with that signal,
    then the trap code will be run once for every signal received.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 8 Oct 92:
  o Recoded assign_fields to use upvar.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11 Oct 92:
  o Modified install script to purge the target help tree before installing.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12 Oct 92:
  o Added a options argument to Tcl_Startup.  It is not currrently used.
   (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)

===============================================================================
14 Nov 92:
  o Added a -n option to the command line that prevents the dumping of the
    procedure call stack on an error.  This is also added as an option to
    the C startup routines.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16 Nov 92:
  o Only set SIGINT to cause an error if the Tcl shell or wish is reading
    commands from stdin.  (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)

  o Fixed bug were packages from libraries and other auto-loads were not
    evaluate in the global environment.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
19 Nov 92:

    Tcl_Eval requires the string to be writable.
    (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY for C++ code*)
  o Removed cmdtrace flush option, output lines are now always flushed.
   (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16 Feb 93:
  o Fix install script to handle new macro .so file in Tcl & Tk.  Will fold it
    into the man page, as some man commands don't do well with .so.

    command.  Supplied procs in tcl.tlib to replace the old commands.
  o Many changes for compabibility with Tcl 7.0.
  o Changed the help facility so that multiple help directories are searched
    to find help files.  This forms a virtual help tree root.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    formating time as GMT correctly.
  o Added our own version of wish main, with programmable prompts, etc.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
18 Jul 93:
  o Changed "signal trap" to edit the command, replacing %S with the signal
    name rather than storing in the global variable. "signalReceived".  This
    fixes bugs with signals received in a signal handler.
   (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
20 Jul 93:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30 Aug 93:
  o Integrated with new Tcl Async functions for signal handling.  Signal
    handling should now work with multiple interpreters.
  o Change "interactiveSession" variable to "tcl_interactive" and moved
    prompts from "TCLENV" array to "tcl_prompt1" and "tcl_prompt2".  These
    changes were done for compatibility with UCB Tcl.
    (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
===============================================================================
 1 Sep 93: Released TclX7.0a Beta 4.
===============================================================================

    that hides signals.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
19 Sep 93:
  o Added -copyfile option to scanfile.
  o Updated tcl++.h with all new Tcl & TclX functions.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
22 Sep 93:
  o Added support for the configure --srcdir option.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
24 Sep 93:

    <clift@ml.csiro.au>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
21 Oct 93:
  o Recompile the needed Tcl & Tk files to set the Tcl & Tk library paths
    rather than attempting to override it by setting environment variables,
    as this can have side affects with exec-ed programs.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
24 Oct 93:
  o Added "frename" command.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30 Oct 93:
  o Added --arch flag to configure program.

    <toddr@rpi.edu>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 3 Nov 93:
  o Change help marker for nroff manual pages from '@ to '\"@, since this
    is a true comment. (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)

     database time date format.  Thanks to "Wolf-D. Ihlenfeldt"
     <wolf@molout.tutkie.tut.ac.jp>
   o Exported Tcl_GetTimeZone.
===============================================================================
10 Nov 93: Released TclX7.1a Beta 5.
===============================================================================
13 Nov 93:
   o Renamed TclX_AppInit function to Tcl_AppInit.  This caused major problem

     to get the Tcl matherr function brought in on Suns.  Thanks to
     Dr. Joseph E. Sacco <jsacco@ssl.com>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
17 Nov 93:
   o Added #ifndef checks around internal math function declarations to 
     prevent conflicts with GNU libc header files. (Should really check in

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Jan 94:
   o Added check for GNU libc to work around the GNU getopt non-standard
     behavior.  This should make things happy for Linux.
   o Improved tclhelp error handling.
   o Code in tcl_prompt variables must now output the prompt rather than 
     return it.  This is for compatibility with tclsh.
     (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
   o Added "readdir" command.
===============================================================================
23 Jan 94: Released TclX7.3a-p1 (patch and full release).
===============================================================================
 5 Feb 94:
   o Fixed SVR4 portability problems.
   o Fixed problem with convertclock on DEC Alpha.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 8 Feb 94:
   o Used setvbuf if its available instead of setlinebuf, as setlinebuf appears
     broken on Ultrix.
===============================================================================

   o Modified server_open to try other addresses for a hostname when connect
     fails.
   o Added the server_info command.
   o Always go through Tcl file table for commands like echo and commandloop.
     This make sure redirected stdin, stdout and stderr are picked up.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1 Jul 94:
   o Changes to support DEC Alpha.
   o When using master install model, lib and include files are now symbolicly
     link to the external directories.

     location is changed.  This allows for quicker rebuild if the prefix
     or arch was not set correctly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11 Jul 94:
   o Always install tclXmain++.C and tkXmain++.C, even if tcl++.h support is
     not built in.
   o Due to a difficult to fix bug, the profrep stack depth summary option
     has been removed.  This changes the calling sequence of profrep.
     (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
===============================================================================
16 Jul 94: Released TclX7.3b.
===============================================================================
25 Jul 94:
   o Set errorInfo if initialization fails.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 4 Aug 94:
   o Changed configure so it doesn't use -lbsd on AIX.  This library contains
     a broken "pow".
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Aug 94:
   o Added ccollate command.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1 Oct 94:
   o Don't lose errorCode when server_open fails.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 3 Oct 94:
   o Fixed core dump when an error occurs loading a package from a library.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
21 Oct 94:
   o Fixed invalid handling of empty keyed lists that contain white spaces.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15 Nov 94:
   o Changed egrep pattern used to strip comments from tcl.tlib, since the
     DEC OSF version is broken and mangles the file.
   o Changed for_file, for_array_keys and for_recursive_glob to handle
     "return" in command correctly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
25 Nov 94:
   o Scanfile now handles returning submatches after missing optional matches.

    an unknown command or other error.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 27 Dec 94:
  o Use clock_t, off_t instead of assuming long.
  o A main is no longer part of the library, its should be part of the
    tclAppInit.c file.  This follows new conventions for Tcl & Tk.
    (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
  o Port to Tcl 7.4/Tk 4.0 beta 1.
  o Worked abound HPUX compiler pointer arithmetic bug in handle table code.
  o Manual page installation now uses the same default locations as Tcl/Tk.
===============================================================================

===============================================================================
 31 Dec 94:
  o Modified tests to include the special test commands use in the Tcl and Tk
    tests.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 15 Jan 95:

    14 character names.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
28 Feb 95:
  o Fixed failure of Boyer-Moore pattern matching (use by scanfile) when
    the matched string has 8 bit characters.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
22 Mar 95:
  o Added automatic configure check for a C++ compiler.
  o Use of CC and CFLAGS macros is now follows autoconf guidelines.

  o Added fstat localhost option.  Also return the port number in the
    fstat remote host list.  (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)
  o Deprecated server_open, added server_connect.  The new command
    can return a single file id for buffered files.  The server_open command
    is now a compatibility proc in tcl.tlib.
===============================================================================
 1 Apr 95: Released TclX7.4a-beta3.
===============================================================================
 7 Apr 95:
  o Fixed use of now ambigious options in tclhelp.
  o Use -L for internal library references to make it easier to hack in
    shared libraries.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12 Apr 95:
  o Use socket send function when sendmsg is not available (like Linux).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15 Apr 95:
  o Modified check for sockets being available.  If was failing on systems
    that require both -lsocket and -lnsl.
  o Added tclx_errorHandler variable used to specify a procedure to call
    when an uncaught error occurs.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
29 Apr 95:
  o Reorganized makefiles to avoid unnecessary copying of files during build.
  o Removed restrictions of size of string returned by fmtclock.
  o The copyfile command now handles non-blocking I/O in the same manner as
    the gets command.
  o Fixed portability problems with server_* command -nobuf option.
  o Support duping of sockets returned by server_* commands.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14 May 95:

    for operations on open files.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
24 May 95:
  o Added ftruncate command to truncate file lengths.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13 Jun 95:
  o Changed convertclock to handle the string "DST" in the timezone (since
    Solaris has decided to include this as part of the output of strftime).
    Change provided by Marco Nijdam <marco@west.nl>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
25 Jun 95:
  o Changes for Tcl 7.4b4 and Tk 4.0b4.
  o Changed "pushd" so that it doesn't change the stack if the directory
    doesn't exist and "dirs" to return rather than echo the stack.  Changes
    based on code submitted by Dave Mielke <davem@bnr.ca>.
  o Added support in the dup command to bind an open file number to a Tcl file
    handle.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30 Jun 95:
  o Changed auto_load to not reload all library indexes when new directories
    are appended to auto_path.  Suggested by Dave Mielke <davem@bnr.ca>.
===============================================================================
 1 Jul 95: Released TclX 7.4a-beta4.
===============================================================================
 2 Jul 95:
  o Fixed fcntl RDWR not returning the correct value.

    Solaris has pipes open RDWR.
  o Fix problems with convertclock on Solaris.
===============================================================================
 2 Jul 95: Released TclX 7.4a-beta5.
===============================================================================
 3 Jul 95:
  o Added -reuseaddr option to server_create command.
  o Added server_cntl command.
  o Added cmdtrace command option.  This is a callback that is called on
    every traced command executed.
  o Added ability to call TclX_Init after Tcl_Init has been called and TkX_Init
    after Tk_Init.  This gives the option of using the TclX runtime in
    conjunction with the standard Tcl/Tk runtime.  It is still recommended
    to only use the TclX runtime, but this change adds flexibility.
  o Renamed the SYSLIBS files to be tclxlibs.mk and tkxlibs.mk.  These are
    now install in the lib directories, as they are architecturally
    dependent.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16 Jul 95:
  o Fixed several protability issues.
  o Updated document on building shared libraries.
  o Added INSTALL_ROOT to support installation on AFS systems.
===============================================================================
16 Jul 95: Released TclX 7.4a-beta5.
===============================================================================
17 Jul 95:
  o Changed ftruncate command to work with chsize.
  o Deprecated the cexpand command, as the functionality is available from
    the new Tcl subst command.  A proc is provided for compatibility.
===============================================================================
24 Jul 95: Released TclX 7.4a.
===============================================================================
  o The auto-path variable was not being correctly set for Tk.  This
    caused tclhelp to not find the Tk help files and the standard Tk
    runtime to be used.
===============================================================================
26 Jul 95: Released TclX 7.4a patch1.
===============================================================================
 3 Aug 95:
  o Portability chages for Encore Multimax UMAX (and probably other older SVR3
    systems).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Aug 95:
  o Fixed server connect so -myport will work without -myip.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
29 Aug 95:
  o Don't use -L to find libraries (except for the shlink target).  This
    was causing old libtcl.a files to be picked up from their installed
    location.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 8 Sep 95:
  o Changed Makefiles to pass MAKEFLAGS via the environment, since GNU make
    can't handle passing them on the command line (unlike most other makes).
===============================================================================
30 Sep 95: Released TclX 7.5a Alpha 1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Oct 95:
  o Added interfaces to TclX_Init and TkX_Init that follow the new calling 
    convention for dynamic loading.
  o Allow min/max commands to take only one argument.
===============================================================================
20 Oct 95: Released TclX 7.5a Alpha 2
===============================================================================
30 Dec 95:
  o Added an interface to TclXCmd_Init that follows the new calling 
    convention for dynamic loading.
  o Source tree restructing to allow for multi-platform development.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Jan 96:
  o Added help page searching code provided by Jan Nijtmans
    <nijtmans@worldaccess.nl>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
09 Feb 96:
  o Integrated with Tcl 7.5 beta 1, which includes the new Tcl I/O system.
  o Replaced the fmtclock, convertclock and getclock commands with
    compatibility procedures that interface to the new Tcl clock command.
===============================================================================
12 Feb 96: Released TclX 7.5a Beta 1
===============================================================================
14 Feb 96:
  o Changed TclX so that it now requires the standard Tcl and Tk runtimes
    be available.  This simplifies the code and tracking changes to Tcl
    at the expense of slightly slower runtime initialization.  This also
    make TclX fully dynamic loadable, including the TclX tlib package
    library.
  o TclX_Init and TkX_Init have been renamed to Tclx_Init and Tkx_Init to
    conform to the dynamic loading conventions.  These routines are no longer
    independent, the Tcl and Tk init routines must be called first.
  o Added initialization of preliminary set of safe commands.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
17 Feb 96:
  o Dropped support for the C++ interfaces in tcl++.h.   This file
    was outdated, not documented and of limited usefulness.  It was often
    a source of portability problems.
  o Cleaned-up the installation.  More parameterization is through macros.
    The master installation model is now specified though the configure script,
    but symbolic links must be built by hand.
  o Modified intersect3 to improve its performance, as suggested by
    Ken Copeland <ken@pdsrc.hilco.com>.
  o Changed lgets to return an error if the last line of a file doesn't have
    a new line.  This is an error as in may indicate an incomplete list.
  o Changed min and max commands to support hex and octal numbers.
  o Deleted the -twoids option from server_connect and server_accept.  These
    options were supplied for implementing procs that were compatibile with the
    old TclX server_* commands.
  o Removed the server_send command and made it a compatibility procedure.
    Now that the Tcl I/O system uses send and recv, this function is
    unnecessary.  Note: the comparibility procedure doesn't support the
    -dontroute and -outofband options (which had never been tested anyway).
    (* potential incompatibility *)
  o Use a function to set appname values returned by infox instead of global
    variables. (* potential incompatibility *)
  o Changed configure to use tclConfig.sh and tkConfig.sh for most
    configuration information.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 2 Mar 96:
  o Added support for building shared libraries on systems where shared
    library support is implemented by Tcl.
===============================================================================
 2 Mar 96: Released TclX 7.5a Beta 2
===============================================================================
 4 Mar 96:
  o Cleaned up the runtime initialization.  Renamed TclInit.tcl to be tclx.tcl
    and created tkx.tcl.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Mar 96:
  o Removed socket functionallity that duplicated Tcl's. Deprecated the
    server_connect, server_create, server_accept and  server_cntl commands.
    Renamed server_info to be host_info and moved the server_cntl
    functionallity info the fcntl command.   Compatbility with these commands
    is still supported for old scripts.
  o Since sockets are now required to build base Tcl, they are no longer
    optional with TclX.
  o Added event loop support for the TclX shell.  If any event sources are
    created the shell will enter an event loop at the end of the top level
    script instead of exiting.  Suggested by Jan Nijtmans
    <nijtmans@worldaccess.nl>.
  o Changed TclX version numbering scheme to append a decimal and a number
    to the base Tcl version instead of a letter.  This makes it compatible
    with the Tcl package versioning mechanism.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13 Mar 96:
  o The copyfile command now disables newline translation by default, copying
    data in binary mode.  A new option has been added to allow translation.
===============================================================================
13 Mar 96: Released TclX 7.5.0 Beta 3
===============================================================================
14 Mar 96:
  o Added support for ITcl 2.0 from earlier TclX 7.4 based patch.
  o Modified the commandloop command to support event based command input.
   (* potential incompatibility *)
  o Removed the implicit event loop feature of the TclX added in the previous
    beta.  It could lead to some hard to find problems.
  o Added mainloop procedure to implement top level evant loops in the TclX
    shell that are similar to wish's.
  o Changed the tclx_errorHandler functionality to be consistent with bgerror.
    Uncaught synchronous errors now look for a procedure named
    tclx_errorHandler, rather than a variable which contains a procedure name.
    For backwards compatibility, a check is still made for a variable
    named tclx_errorHandler.  This functionality is deprecated and scripts
    should be change to use the new form.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 6 Apr 96:
  o Added guidelines for creating a pkgIndex.tcl file for use with TclX.  Build
    a prototype file, pkgIndex.proto, that can be merged with other
    pkgIndex.tcl files.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
24 Apr 96:
  o Chanced 'mkdir -path' to not return an error if the full path already
    exists.
===============================================================================
25 Apr 96: Released TclX 7.5.0
===============================================================================
29 Apr 96:
  o Fixed build problems with shared libraries on Solaris and HP-UX.
  o Added *LIB_SPEC variables to tclx/tkxConfig.sh. 
  o Removed explicit support for master installation model.  The same affect
    can be achieved with --prefix.
  o Its no longer a requirement to use --enabled-shared with Tcl & Tk to use it
    with TclX.
===============================================================================
 2 May 96: Released TclX 7.5.0 patch 1
===============================================================================
 4 May 96:
  o Fix bug where manual pages were not installed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 6 May 96:

    are used.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 8 May 96:
  o Even more changes to deal with the runtime library search path correctly
    on Solaris and others.
  o Fixed problems when Tcl/Tk is built with --srcdir.
===============================================================================
10 May 96: Released TclX 7.5.1
===============================================================================

  o Fixed problem in initialization code that caused Tk send.test to hang.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
23 May 96:
  o Fixed bug that caused panic when doing a copyfile to/from a file that is 
    open read/write.
===============================================================================
15 Jun 96: Released TclX 7.5.2
===============================================================================
 6 Jul 96:
  o Fixed bug in loading ITcl tclIndex files.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
27 Jul 96:
  o Major work on the Win32 port has been included.
===============================================================================
27 Jul 96: Released TclX 7.5.3 - alpha 1 (Win32 alpha release)
===============================================================================
 8 Aug 96:
  o The runtime now installs under /usr/local/lib/{tclX,tkX} by default.
    (Hi Don).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16 Aug 96:
  o Added support for ITcl namespaces to the profile command.  Change supplied
    by Christopher Hylands <cxh@EECS.Berkeley.EDU>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
20 Aug 96:
  o Search for the TclX init files and library directories in the same manner
    as Tcl/Tk.  This removes the tclx/tkx_library_env, tclx/tkx_init libraries
    Tcl variables.  This removes some of the flexability, but makes it
    consistent with Tcl/Tk and simplifies Win32 port.
   (* potential incompatibility *)
===============================================================================
17 Sep 96: Released TclX 7.6.0 Beta 1
===============================================================================
17 Sep 96:

    instead of scope stacks.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 3 Oct 96:
  o Integrated support for building both shared and static libraries at the
    same time from Jan Nijtmans' <nijtmans@worldaccess.nl> TclX plus patch.
  o Deprecated the mkdir, rmdir, unlink and frename commands in favor of the
    new file subcommands. Compatability with these commands is still supported
    for old scripts via procedures in the TclX library.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
19 Oct 96:
  o Modified to build pkgIndex.tcl files and install them so that Tcl
    auto_loading will find them.
  o Removed --arch configure option.  With new pkgIndex.tcl changes, its not
    much good unless Tcl and Tk supported it.
===============================================================================
20 Oct 96: Released TclX 7.6.0 Beta 2
===============================================================================
15 Nov 96:

    install rules.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
17 Nov 96:
  o pkgIndex.tcl files now works relative to $dir, so they can be moved.
  o libtclx and libtkx now use the same alogrithm for naming that includes the
    version number as Tcl and Tk.
===============================================================================

    was duplicated in the second list.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
22 Dec 96:

    dup-ing and open file.  Supplied by Alan Dewar <alan@calgary.hp.com>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
01 May 97:
  o More than 50% of the commands provided by Extended Tcl have been rewritten
    to use the new object system.

    Thanks to Viktor Dukhovni <viktor@esm.com> for the patch.
  o Fix trap signal handler overwriting interp result.
  o Modified the system command to take multiple arguments and concat them
    into a single command string.
  o Deprecated the copyfile command in favor of the fcopy command. 
    Compatability with copyfile is still supported for old scripts via a
    procedure in the TclX library.
  o All commands now use the Tcl_Obj API.
===============================================================================
08 Jul 97: Released TclX 8.0.0 Beta 2
===============================================================================

    command errors rather than printing them to stderr.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
25 Jul 97:
  o Fixed invalid keyed list key comparisons when two keys started with the
    same string.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30 Jul 97:
  o Removed check for last being before first in crange and csubstr.  Now
    returns an empty string.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 7 Aug 97:
  o Merged in port of 8.0.0 code to Win32.  Contributed by Viktor Dukhovni
    <viktor@esm.com>.  Thanks Viktor!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Aug 97:
  o Removed C global tclDeleteInterpAtEnd, as it caused problems with windows
    ports.  Instead, a Tcl global TCLXENV(deleteInterpAtShellExit) enables
    deleting the interp when the shell exits.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16 Aug 97:
  o Integrated several build fixes from Jan Nijtmans' <nijtmans@worldaccess.nl>
    TclX plus patch.

22 Oct 97:
  o Fixed failure to run variable traces in lvarpush, lvarpop and loop
    commands.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Nov 97:
  o Changed TclX auto_loading to use a modified version of the Tcl proc
    rather than defining its own command.  Done to track changes in the 8.0p1
    release.  The loadlibindex commands can no longer handle tclIndex files.
    (*POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*)     
  o Removed restriction on keyedlist key containing white spaces.  Keys really
    shouldn't,  but this check broke compatibility.
===============================================================================
11 Nov 97: Released TclX 8.0.1
===============================================================================
28 Nov 97:
