Since TkCon is meant to behave like the original Tk -console, it does not separate itself from the environment (it does not use -send to function, except when attached to foreign Tk interpreters). This -means that it can be can be altered or destroyed by any sourced -applications, and it will respond to an application's 'exit' call by -exiting (by default, slave consoles will only close themselves instead of -exiting the entire TkCon environment). However, the widget tree of TkCon -is hidden from the user environment. - <P> - -Since TkCon is built for cross-platform capability, <font color=#FF0000>in -Unix/Windows environments it does not have tty/shell behavior</font>. This -means programs like <CODE>vi</CODE> and <CODE>less</CODE> (those that rely -on tty/shell settings) will not function appropriately (currently they may -hang TkCon). Programs like <CODE>ls</CODE> and <CODE>more</CODE> will just -spit output to the TkCon screen without any special control or formatting -(note that <CODE>ls</CODE> has been rewritten for TkCon). You also do not -get any job (process) control outside of what tcl normally can provide. -Currently there is no way to handle <CODE>stdin</CODE> input. - <P> - -When connecting to non-Tcl Tk interpreters (ie - PerlTk, SchemeTk, ...), -you must use the syntax of the target environment. See my -<A HREF="nontcl.html">notes on using other Tk-embedded languages</A> for -more info. -</DIV> -</TD></TR></TABLE> - -<HR NOSHADE SIZE=1> -<ADDRESS><FONT SIZE=2>© Jeffrey Hobbs</FONT></ADDRESS> - -</BODY> -</HTML> |
