Rexx/Tk v. 2.0 (zip, 2/1/2002, Mark Hessling) Readme/What's new
DEVELOPMENT CHANGES/BUG FIXES TO Rexx/Tk 2.0.0 02 January 2002 - OS/2 port using Illya Vaes port of Tcl/Tk 8.0.5 now supported. (Still a couple of bugs in Illya's Tcl/Tk port). This version should also work with Tcl/Tk 8.3 (port by Illya in progress) - Changed Rexx/Tk architecture to remove Rexx/Tk extensions. This was done to enable the OS/2 port to work correctly and to ensure that no code changes were required to Rexx/Tk programs that were required to run on OS/2 and other platforms. The main cause of the problem is that under OS/2, DLL file names MUST not exceed 8 characters in length, so Call Rxfuncadd 'TkTreeLoadFuncs','rexxtktree','TkTreeLoadFuncs' cannot work under OS/2. Note that the extensions, tree, mclistbox, notebook and combobox are still available; they are part of the base package now and do not have to be explicitly loaded. - TkGetBaseData() removed. - Set TKRC correctly on initialisation - Allowed internal error messages longer than 256 characters. Used to cause a crash.
