+	* generic/tclStubInit.c:
+	* generic/tclEncoding.c:
+	* generic/tclFileName.c:
+	* mac/tclMacFile.c:
+	* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
+	* win/tclWinFile.c: enhanced the glob command with the new options
+	-types -path -directory and -join.  Deprecated TclpMatchFiles with
+	TclpMatchFilesTypes, extended TclGlob and TclDoGlob and added
+	GlobTypeData structure. [Bug: 2363]
+
+1999-12-10  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+	* tests/var.test:
+	* generic/tclCompile.c: fixed problem where setting to {} array
+	would intermittently not work. (Fontaine) [Bug: 3339]
+
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
+	* generic/tclExecute.c: optimized INST_TRY_CVT_TO_NUMERIC to
+	recognize boolean objects. (Spjuth) [Bug: 2815]
+
+	* tests/info.test:
+	* tests/parseOld.test:
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:
+	* generic/tclProc.c: changed Tcl_UplevelObjCmd (uplevel) and
+	Tcl_EvalObjCmd (eval) to use TCL_EVAL_DIRECT in the single arg
+	case as well, to take advantage	of potential pure list input
+	optimization.  This means that it won't get byte compiled though,
+	which should be acceptable.
+	* generic/tclBasic.c: made Tcl_EvalObjEx pure list object aware in
+	the TCL_EVAL_DIRECT case for efficiency.
+	* generic/tclUtil.c: made Tcl_ConcatObj pure list object aware,
+	and return a list object in that case [Bug: 2098 2257]
+
+	* generic/tclMain.c: changed Tcl_Main to not constantly reuse the
+	commandPtr object (interactive case) as it could be shared. (Fellows)
+
+	* unix/configure.in:
+	* unix/tcl.m4:
+	* unix/tclUnixPipe.c: removed checking for compatible vfork
+	function and use of the vfork function.  Modern VM systems rarely
+	suffer any performance degradation when fork is used, and it
+	solves multiple problems with vfork.  Users that still want vfork
+	can add -Dfork=vfork to the compile flags. [Bug: 942 2228 1312]
+
+1999-12-09  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+	* win/aclocal.m4: made it just include tcl.m4
+
+	* doc/exec.n:
+	* doc/open.n:
+	* win/tclWin32Dll.c:
+	* win/tclWinChan.c:
+	* win/tclWinFCmd.c:
+	* win/tclWinInit.c:
+	* win/tclWinPipe.c:
+	* win/tclWinSock.c: removed all code that supported Win32s.  It
+	was no longer officially supported, and likely didn't work anyway.
+	* win/makefile.vc: removed 16 bit stuff, cleaned up.
+
+	* win/tcl16.rc:
+	* win/tclWin16.c:
+	* win/winDumpExts.c: these files have been removed from the
+	source tree (no longer necessary to build)
+
+1999-12-07  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+	* tests/io.test: removed 'knownBug' tests that were for
+	unsupported0, which is now fcopy (that already has tests)
+
+	* mac/tclMacPort.h: added utime.h include
+
+	* generic/tclDate.c:
+	* unix/Makefile.in: fixed make gendate to swap const with CONST
+	so it uses the Tcl defined CONST type [Bug: 3521]
+
+	* generic/tclIO.c: removed panic that could occur in FlushChannel
+	when a "blocking" channel would receive EAGAIN, instead treating
+	it the same as non-blocking. [Bug: 3773]
+
+	* generic/tclUtil.c: fixed Tcl_ScanCountedElement to not step
+	beyond the end of the counted string [Bug: 3336]
+
+1999-12-03  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+	* doc/load.n: added note about NT's buggy handling of './' with
+	LoadLibrary
+
+	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: fixed error handling in http::Event
+	[Bug: 3752]
+
+	* tests/env.test: removed knownBug limitation from working test
+	* tests/all.tcl: ensured that ::tcltest::testsDirectory would be
+	set to an absolute path
+
+	* tests/expr-old.test:
+	* tests/parseExpr.test:
+	* tests/string.test:
+	* generic/tclGet.c:
+	* generic/tclInt.h:
+	* generic/tclObj.c:
+	* generic/tclParseExpr.c:
+	* generic/tclUtil.c:
+	* generic/tclExecute.c: added TclCheckBadOctal routine to enhance
+	error message checking for when users use invalid octal numbers
+	(like 08), as well as replumbed the Expr*Funcs with a new
+	VerifyExprObjType to simplify type handling. [Bug: 2467]
+
+	* tests/expr.test:
+	* generic/tclCompile.c: fixed 'bad code length' error for
+	'expr + {[incr]}' case, with new test case [Bug: 3736]
+	and seg fault on 'expr + {[error]}' (different cause) that
+	was caused by a correct optimization that didn't correctly
+	track how it was modifying the source string in the opt.
+	The optimization was removed, which means that:
+		expr 1 + {[string length abc]}
+	will be not be compiled inline as before, but this should be
+	written:
+		expr {1 + [string length abc]}
+	which will be compiled inline for speed.  This prevents
+		expr 1 + {[mindless error]}
+	from seg faulting, and only affects optimizations for
+	degenerate cases [Bug: 3737]
+
+1999-12-01  Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+	* generic/tcl.decls :
+	* generic/tclMain.c :
+	* unix/tclAppInit.c: 
+	* win/tclAppInit.c: Added two new internal functions,
+	TclSetStartupScriptFileName() and TclGetStartupScriptFileName()
+	and added hooks into the main() code for supporting TclPro and
+	other "big" shells more easily without requiring a copy of the
+	main() code.

+	tclEvent.c into the more appropriate tclEncoding.c.
+	
+1999-11-30  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>

+
+	* generic/tclLoad.c: #def'd out the unloading of DLLs at finalize

+
+	* doc/open.n:

+	went to stdout instead of the specified output file in some
+	cases.
+
+1999-11-19  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+	* generic/tclProc.c: backed out change from 1999-11-18 as it

+	in TclSockMinimumBuffers.
+
+	* generic/tclCkalloc.c: fixed Tcl_DbCkfree to return a value
+	on NULL input. [Bug: 3400]
+
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c: fixed support for passing in negative

+	* generic/tclScan.c: finished support for inline scan by
+	supporting XPG identifiers.
+
+	* doc/http.n:
+	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: added register and unregister
+	commands to http:: package (better support for tls/SSL),
+	as well as -type argument to http::geturl. [RFE: 2617]
+
+	* generic/tclBasic.c: removed extra decr of numLevels in

+	problem mentioned in the 10-29 change.  Also added error
+	handling for failed writes on the socket during the protocol.
+
+1999-11-09  Jeff Hobbs  <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+	* doc/open.n: corrected docs for 'a' open mode.
+
+	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: changed Tcl_Alloc to ckalloc
+
+	* generic/tclInt.h:
+	* generic/tclObj.c: rolled back changes from 1999-10-29
+	Purify noted new leaks with that code
+
+	* generic/tclParse.c: added code in Tcl_ParseBraces to test for
+	possible unbalanced open brace in a comment
+
+	* library/init.tcl: removed the installed binary directory from

+	* unix/tcl.m4: added recognition of pthreads library for AIX
+
+1999-10-29  Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+	* generic/tclInt.h: Modified the TclNewObj and TclDecrRefCount
+	in two ways.  First, in the case of TCL_THREADS, we do not use
+	the special Tcl_Obj allocator because that is a source of 
+	lock contention.  Second, general code cleanup to eliminate
+	duplicated code. In particular, TclDecrRefCount now uses
+	TclFreeObj instead of duplicating that code, so it is now
+	identical to Tcl_DecrRefCount.
+
+	* generic/tclObj.c: Changed Tcl_NewObj so it uses the
+	TclNewObj macro instead of duplicating the code.  Adjusted
+	TclFreeObj so it understands the TCL_THREADS case described
+	above.
+
+	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a bug in the handling of
+	the state(status) variable when the -timeout flag is specified.
+	Previously it was possible to leave the status undefined
+	instead of empty, which caused errors in http::status

+	* unix/aclocal.m4: made it just include tcl.m4
+
+	* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: updated makeFile to return
+	full pathname of file created
+
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c: fixed Tcl_AppendStringsToObjVA so it only
+	iterates once over the va_list (avoiding a memcpy of it,
+	which is not portable).
+
+	* generic/tclEnv.c: fixed possible ABR error in environ array
+
+	* tests/scan.test:
+	* generic/tclScan.c: added support for use of inline scan,
+	XPG3 currently not included
+
+	* tests/incr.test:
+	* tests/set.test:
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c: fixed improper bytecode handling of
+	'eval {set array($unknownvar) 5}' (also for incr) [Bug: 3184]
+
+	* win/tclWinTest.c: added testvolumetype command, as atime is
+	completely ignored for Windows FAT file systems

+	* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
+	* generic/tclThreadTest.c: fixed mem leaks in threads

+	* generic/regc_color.c: fixed mem leak and assertion, from HS
+
+	* generic/tclCompile.c: removed savedChar trick that appeared to
+	be causing a segv when the literal table was released
+
+	* tests/string.test:
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c: fixed [string index] to return ByteArrayObj
+	when indexing into one (test case string-5.16) [Bug: 2871]
+
+	* library/http2.1/http.tcl: protected gets with catch [Bug: 2665]
+
+1999-10-19  Jennifer Hom  <jenn@scriptics.com>
+
+	* tests/tcltest.test:
+	* doc/tcltest.n:
+	* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed the extra return at the
+	end of the tcltest.tcl file, added version information about tcl.
+
+	Applied patches sent in by Andreas Kupries to add helper procs for
+	debug output, add 3 new flags (-testsdir, -load, -loadfile), and
+	internally refactors common code for dealing with paths into
+	separate procedures. [Bug: 2838, 2842]
+
+	Merged code from core-8-2-1 branch that changes the checks for the
+	value of tcl_interactive to also incorporate a check for the
+	existence of the variable.
+
+	* tests/autoMkindex.test:
+	* tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Explicitly cd to
+	::tcltest::testsDirectory at the beginning of the test run
+
+	* tests/basic.test: Use version information defined in tcltest

+
+	* tests/winFCmd.test:  Test case winFcmd-1.33 was looking for

+	
+	* tests/var.test:
+	* generic/tclVar.c:  Fixed bug that caused a seg. fault when using

+
+	* doc/Utf.3:
+	* generic/tcl.decls:
+	* generic/tclDecls.h:
+	* generic/tclUtf.c: Changed function declarations in
+	non-platform-specific public APIs to use "unsigned long" instead of
+	"size_t", which may not be defined on certain compilers (rather
+	than include sys/types.h, which may not exist).
+	
+	* unix/Makefile.in: Added the Windows configure script to the
+	distribution file list, already shipping configure.in and the .m4
+	files, but needed the configure script itself.
+	
+	* win/makefile.vc: Changed version number of DDE package in VC++
+	makefile to use 1.1 instead of 1.0.
+
+	* doc/open.n: Added documentation of \\.\comX notation for opening

+	case as well.
+	
+	* win/tclWinSock.c: Modified 8.1.0 version of the Win32 socket
+	driver to move the handling of the socket event window in a
+	separate thread.  It also turned out that Win95 & Win98 were, in
+	some cases, getting multiple FD_ACCEPTs but only handling one.
+	Added a count for the FD_ACCEPT to take care of this.  Tested on
+	NT4 SP3, NT4 SP4, Win95, and Win98.

+1999-07-20  Melissa Hirschl  <hershey@matisse.scriptics.com>
+
+	* generic/tclInitScript.h: 
+	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: merged code with 8.0.5.  We now use an

+
+1999-07-11    <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+	* win/makefile.vc: Since the makefile.vc should continue to work
+	while we're working out bugs/issues in the new TEA-style
+	autoconf/configure/gmake build mechanism for Windows, the version
+	numbers of the Tcl libraries need to remain in sync.  Modified the

+
+1999-07-09    <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+	* win/configure.in: Eval DLLSUFFIX, LIBSUFFIX, and EXESUFFIX in

+	from Rolf Shroedter (Rolf.Schroedter@dlr.de) that allows more than

+
+1999-07-03    <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+	* generic/tclParse.c: Changed parsing of variable names to

+	changes) to fix problem with Tcl_GetIndexFromObj() when the key
+	being passed is the empty string.  It used to match "" and return
+	TCL_OK, but it should have returned TCL_ERROR instead.  Added test
+	case to "binary" and "dde" commands to check the behavior.  Added
+	documentation note as well.

+	* library/tcltest1.0: Added initial implementation of the Tcl test
+	harness package.  This package was based on the defs.tcl file that

+
+	* doc/tcltest.n: Added documentation for the tcltest package.
+
+	* tests/README:

+
+	* unix/Makefile.in:
+	* unix/tclAppInit.c: Minor cleanup related to Xt notifier.
+	
+	* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Tcl now looks for
+	an encoding subfield in the LANG/LC_ALL variables in cases where
+	the locale is not found in the locale table.  Ensure that
+	setlocale() is called at least once so X11 will initialize
+	properly.  Also, forces the LC_NUMERIC locale to be "C" so numeric
+	processing in scripts is not affected by the current locale
+	setting. [Bug: 1989]
+
+	* generic/tclRegexp.c: Increased per-thread regexp cache to 30
+	slots.  This seems to be about the right number for larger
+	applications like exmh.  [Bug: 1063]
+
+1999-05-12    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+	* doc/tclsh.1: Updated references to rc script names to accurately

+
+	* tests/regexp.test: 
+	* generic/tclInt.h: 
+	* generic/tclBasic.c: 
+	* generic/tclRegexp.h:
+	* generic/tclRegexp.c: Replaced the per-interpreter regexp cache
+	with a per-thread cache.  Changed the Regexp object to take
+	advantage of this extra cache.  Added a reference count to the
+	TclRegexp type so regexps can be shared by multiple objects.
+	Removed the per-interp regexp cache from the interpreter.  Now
+	regexps can be used with no need for an interpreter. [Bug: 1063]
+
+	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpSetVariables): Avoid calling GetUserName
+	if the value can be determined from the USERNAME environment
+	variable.  GetUserName is very slow.
+
+1999-05-07    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+

+
+	* generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_AppendResultVA): 
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendStringsToObjVA): Fixed to copy

+	TclpUnloadFile. [Bug: 2003]

+	-nocase option to "string map".  Changed index syntax to allow
+	integer or end?-integer? instead of a full expression.  This is

+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): 
+	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetIntForIndex): Applied Jeff Hobbs's
+	string patch which includes the following changes [Bug: 1845]:
+	
+	    - string compare now takes optional length arg (for strncmp
+		behavior)
+                            
+            - added string equal (just a few lines of code blended
+                in with string compare)
+            
+            - added string icompare/iequal for case-insensitive comparisons
+            
+            - string index's index can now be ?end[+-]?expression
+                I made this change in the private TclGetIntForIndex,
+                which means that the list commands also benefit, as
+                well as string range, et al.
+            
+            - added [string repeat string count]
+                Repeats given string  number of times
+            
+            - added string replace, string equiv to lreplace
+              (quasi opposite of string range):
+                        string replace first last ?string?
+                Example of use, replacing end of string with ...
+                should the string be more than 16 chars long:
+                        string replace $string 16 end "..."
+                This just returns the string len < 16, so it
+                will only affect the long strings.
+            
+            - added optional first and last args to string to*
+                This allows you to just affect certain regions of
+                a string with the command (like just capping the
+                first letter).  I found the original totitle to
+                be too draconian to be useful.
+            
+            - added [string map charMap string]
+                where charMap is a {from to from to} list that equates to
+                what one might get from [array get].  Each  and 
+                can be multiple chars (or none at all).  For Tcl/CGI users,
+                this is a MAJOR speed booster.
+	
+	* generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Changed to avoid
+	modifying eval'ed strings that are already null terminated.
+	[Bug: 1793] 
+
+	* tests/binary.test: 
+	* generic/tclBinary.c (DupByteArrayInternalRep): Fixed bug where
+	type was not being set in duplicated object. [Bug: 1975, 2047]
+
+1999-04-30    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+	
+	* Changed version to 8.1.1.
+	
+1999-04-30    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+

+
+	* generic/tclPlatDecls.h: 
+	* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: 
+	* generic/tclIntDecls.h: 
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: 
+	* tools/genStubs.tcl: Added 'extern "C" {}' block around the stub
+	table pointer declaration so the stub library can be used from
+	C++. [Bug: 1934]
+
+	* Lots of documentation and other release engineering fixes.
+
+1999-04-28    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+	* mac/tclMacResource.c: 
+	* generic/tclListObj.c: 
+	* generic/tclObj.c: 
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c: Changed to avoid freeing the string
+	representation before freeing the internal rep.  This helps with
+	debugging since the string rep will still be valid when the free
+	proc is invoked.
+
+1999-04-27    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+	* generic/tclLiteral.c (TclHideLiteral): Fixed so hidden literals
+	get duplicated to avoid accidental sharing in the global object
+	table. 
+
+1999-04-23    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+	* generic/tclStubInit.c: 
+	* tools/genStubs.tcl: Changed to avoid the need for forward
+	declarations in stub initializers.
+
+1999-04-23    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+	* library/encoding/koi8-r.enc:
+	* tools/encoding/koi8-r.txt: Added support for the koi8-r Cyrillic
+	encoding. [Bug: 1771]
+
+1999-04-22    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+	* win/tclWinFCmd.c:
+	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Changed uses of "try" to "__try", since that
+	is the actual keyword.  This eliminates the need for some -D flags
+	from the makefile.
+
+	* generic/tclPort.h: Added include of tcl.h since it defines
+	various Windows macros that are needed before deciding which
+	platform porting file to use.
+
+	* generic/tclEvent.c: lint
+
+	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): Added call to TclWinInit
+	when building a static library since DllMain will not be invoked.
+	This could break old code that explicitly called TclWinInit, but

+
+	* generic/tclInt.h: 
+	* generic/tclInt.decls: 
+	* generic/tclCompile.c: Added TclSetByteCodeFromAny that takes a
+	hook procedure to invoke after compilation but before the byte
+	codes are emitted.  This makes it possible to do postprocessing on
+	the compiled byte codes before the ByteCode is generated.
+
+	* generic/tclLiteral.c: Added TclHideLiteral and TclAddLiteralObj
+	to make it possible to create local unshared literal objects.
+	
+	* win/tclWinInit.c:
+	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: Changed initial search path to match that
+	found used by tcl_findLibrary.
+
+1999-04-22    <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+	* win/tclWinPort.h:
+	* win/tclWinSock.c: Added code to use WinSock 2.0 API on NT to
+	avoid creating a window to handle sockets.  API not available on
+	Win95 and needs to be fixed on Win98, until then continue to use
+	the older (window-based) scheme on those two OSes.

+	* library/encoding/euc-cn.enc:
+	* tools/encoding/gb2312.txt:
+	* tools/encoding/cp950.txt:
+	* tools/encoding/Makefile: Restored the double byte definition of
+	GB2312 and added the EUC-CN encoding.  EUC-CN is a variant of
+	GB2312 that shifts the characters into bytes with the high bit set
+	and includes ASCII as a subset. [Bug: 632]
+
+1999-04-13    <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+	* win/tclWinSock.c: Apply patch to allow write access to a socket
+	if FD_WRITE is sent but FD_CONNECT is not.  Some strange problem
+	with either Win32 or a socket driver.  [Bug: 1664 1776]
+
+1999-04-09    <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Fixed notifier deadlock situation when the
+	pipe used to talk back notifier thread is filled with data.  When
+	calling the write() function to feed data down that pipe, unlock
+	the notifierMutex to allow the notifier to wake up again.  Found
+	as a result of the focus.test for Tk hanging. [Bug: 1700]
+
+1999-04-06    <stanton@scriptics.com>

+1999-04-06    <surles@scriptics.com>
+
+	* generic/tclVar.c: 
+	* generic/tclEnv.c: Moved the "array set" C level code into a

+
+	* generic/tclEnv.c:
+	* generic/tclWinInit.h:
+	* generic/tclUnixInit.h:
+	* generic/tclInt.h: Made the Env module I18N compliant.  Changed the

+	
+	* tests/safe.test:
+	* doc/safe.n:
+	* generic/tclBasic.c:
+	* library/safe.tcl: The encoding command is not safe as-is, so
+	create a safe alias to mask out the "encoding system <name>" but
+	allow all other uses including "encoding system". Added test cases
+	and updated the man page for Safe Tcl.
+
+1999-04-05    <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+	* tests/winTime.test:

+	* win/tclWinSock.c: Removed a bunch of extraneous PASCAL FAR
+	attributes from internal functions.
+
+	* win/tclWinReg.c: Changed registry package to use stubs mechanism
+	so it no longer depends on the specific version of Tcl.
+
+	* doc/AddErrInfo.3: 
+	* doc/Eval.3: 
+	* doc/PkgRequire.3: 
+	* doc/SetResult.3:

+	* generic/tclBasic.c: 
+	* generic/tclPanic.c:
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c:
+	* generic/tclUtil.c:
+	* unix/mkLinks: Added va_list versions of all VARARGS
+	functions so they can be invoked from the stub functions.
+
+	* doc/package.n: 
+	* doc/PkgRequire.3: 
+	* generic/tclPkg.c: Added Tcl_PkgProvideEx, Tcl_RequireEx,
+	Tcl_PresentEx, and Tcl_PkgPresent.  Added "package present"
+	command.
+
+	* generic/tclFileName.c: 
+	* mac/tclMacFile.c: 
+	* mac/tclMacShLib.exp: 
+	* unix/tclUnixFile.c: 
+	* win/tclWinFile.c: Changed so TclGetUserHome is defined on
+	all platforms, even though it is currently a noop on mac and
+	windows, and renamed it to TclpGetUserHome.
+
+	* generic/tclPanic.c:
+	* generic/panic.c: Renamed panic to Tcl_Panic.
+	
+1999-02-25    <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+	* win/makefile.vc: Added tclWinConsole.c and tclWinSerial.c
+	
+	* win/tclWinConsole.c: New code to properly deal with fileevents
+	and nonblocking mode on consoles.
+	
+	* win/tclWinSerial.c: New code to properly deal with fileevents
+	and nonblocking mode on serial ports.
+
+	* win/tclWinPipe.c: 
+	* win/tclWinPort.h: Exported functions to allow creation of pipe
+	channels from tclWinChan.c
+
+	* win/tclWinChan.c: Check the type of a channel, including for the
+	standard (stdin/stdout/stderr), and use the correct channel type
+	to create the channel (file, serial, console, or pipe).
+
+1999-02-11    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* README: 
+	* generic/tcl.h: 
+	* win/README.binary: 
+	* win/README: 
+	* unix/configure.in: 
+	* mac/README: Updated version numbers to 8.1b2.
+
+1999-02-10    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* library/auto.tcl: Fixed auto_mkindex so it handles .tbc files.
+	Did some general cleanup to handle bad eval statements that didn't
+	use "list".
+
+	* unix/mkLinks:
+	* doc/SetVar.3:
+	* generic/tcl.h:
+	* generic/tclVar.c: Restored Tcl_ObjGetVar2 and Tcl_ObjSetVar2
+	from 8.0. Renamed Tcl_Get/SetObjVar2 to Tcl_GetVar2Ex and
+	Tcl_SetVar2Ex.
+
+1999-02-10    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	INTEGRATED PATCHES FROM 8.0.5b2: 
+
+	* test/winPipe.test: Changed to remove echoArgs.tcl temporary file
+	when done.
+	
+	* tests/cmdAH.test:
+	* generic/tclFileName.c (TclGetExtension): Changed behavior so the
+	split happens at the last period in the name instead of the first
+	period of the last run of periods.  So, "foo..o" is split into
+	"foo." and ".o" now. [Bug: 1126]
+	
+	* win/makefile.vc: Added better support for paths with spaces in
+	the name. Added .lib and support .dlls to the install-binaries
+	target.  Added generate of a pkgIndex.tcl script to the
+	install-libraries target.
+
+	* win/tclAppInit.c: 
+	* unix/tclAppInit.c: 
+	* mac/tclMacAppInit.c: 
+	* generic/tclTest.c: Changed some EXTERN declarations to extern
+	since they are not defining exported interfaces.  This avoids
+	generating useless declspec() attributes and makes the windows
+	makefile simpler.
+
+	* generic/tcl.h: Moved Tcl_AppInit declaration to end and cleared
+	out TCL_STORAGE_CLASS so it is not declared with a declspec().
+
+	* tests/interp.test:
+	* generic/tclInterp.c (DeleteAlias): Changed to use
+	Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken so we handle renames properly. This
+	avoids senseless panic. [Bug: 736]
+
+	* unix/tclUnixChan.c: 
+	* win/tclWinSock.c: 
+	* doc/socket.n: Applied Gordon Chaffee's patch to handle failures
+	during asynchronous socket connection operations.  This adds a new
+	"-error" fconfgure option to socket channels. [Bug: 893]
+
+	* generic/tclProc.c:
+	* generic/tclNamesp.c:
+	* generic/tclInt.h: 
+	* generic/tclCmdIL.c: 
+	* generic/tclBasic.c: 
+	* generic/tclVar.c: Applied patch from Viktor Dukhovni to
+	rationalize TCL_LEAVE_ERR_MSG behavior when creating variables.
+	
+	* generic/tclVar.c: Fixed bug in namespace tail computation.
+	Fixed bug where upvar could resurrect a namespace variable whose
+	namespace had been deleted.
+
+	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileExprCmd): Eliminated yet another
+	bogus optimization in expression compilation.
+
+	* unix/configure.in: Added branch for BSD/OS-4* to shared library
+	case statement. [Bug: 975]
+	Fixed to correctly handle IRIX 6.5 n32 library support. [Bug: 1117]
+	
+	* win/winDumpExts.c: Patched to be pickier about stripping
+	@'s. [Bug: 920]
+
+	* library/http2.0/http.tcl: Added catch around eof test in
+	CopyDone since the user may have already called http::reset.
+	[Bug: 1108] 
+
+	* unix/configure.in: Changed Linux and IRIX to set SHLIB_LIBS to
+	LIBS so shared libraries are linked with the system
+	libraries. [Bug: 1018]
+
+	* generic/tclCompile.c (CompileExprWord): Fixed exception stack
+	overflow bug caused by missing statement. [Bug: 928]
+
+	* generic/tclIOCmd.c: 
+	* generic/tclBasic.c: Objectified the "open" command. [Bug: 1113] 
+
+	* generic/tclPosixStr.c (Tcl_ErrnoId, Tcl_ErrnoMsg): When using
+	egcs, ENOTSUP and EOPNOTSUPP are the same, so now we handle that
+	case. [Bug: 1137]
+
+	* library/init.tcl: Various small changes requested by Jan Nijtmans.
+	- If the variable $tcl_library contains the empty string, this
+	empty string will be put in $auto_path. This is not useful at all,
+	it only slows down later package processing.
+	- If the variable tcl_pkgPath is not set, the "unset __dir"
+	fails. Thich makes init.tcl totally unusable. Better put a "catch"
+	around it. 
+	- In the function tcl_findLibraries, the "string match" function
+	only works correctly if $tcl_patchLevel is in one of the forms
+	"?.?a?", "?.?b?" or "?.?.?". Could a "regexp" be used instead,
+	then it allows anything to be appended to the patchLevel
+	string. And it is more efficient.
+	- The tclPkgSetup function assumes that if $type != "load" then
+	the type must be "source". This needn't be true. Some users want
+	to add their own setup types.
+	[RFE: 1138] [Bug: 978]
+
+	* win/tclWinReg.c: 
+	* doc/registry.n: Added support for HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA and
+	HKEY_DYN_DATA keys. [Bug: 1109]
+
+	* win/tclWinInit.c (TclPlatformInit): Added code to ensure
+	tcl_pkgPath is set to "" when no registry entry is found. [Bug: 978]
+
+1999-02-01    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* generic/tclBasic.c:

+	* generic/tclParse.c:
+	* generic/tclProc.c:
+	* generic/tclTest.c:
+	* generic/tclTimer.c:
+	* generic/tcl.h: Made eval interfaces compatible with 8.0 by
+	renaming Tcl_EvalObj to Tcl_EvalObjEx, renaming Tcl_Eval2 to
+	Tcl_EvalEx and restoring Tcl_EvalObj and Tcl_GlobalEvalObj
+	interfaces so they match Tcl 8.0.
+
+1999-01-28    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* Merged Tcl 8.0.5b1 changes.
+	
+	* generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_DStringSetLength): Changed so the buffer
+	overallocates in a manner similar to Tcl_DStringAppend.  This
+	should improve performance for TclUniCharToUtfDString.
+
+1998-12-11    === Tcl 8.1b1 Release ===
+	
+1998-12-10    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* Fixed lots of files that used TCL_THREAD instead of TCL_THREADS.
+	
+	* generic/tclEncoding.c (Tcl_FreeEncoding): Moved most of the code
+	into a static FreeEncoding routine that does not grab the
+	encodingMutex to avoid deadlocks/races when called from other
+	routines that already have the mutex.
+
+1998-12-09    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Fixed bad export list, fixed so
+	all locale strings are converted to lower case, including file
+	names.
+
+	* generic/regcomp.c (makescan): Fixed bug in longest match case
+	that caused anchored patterns to fail. [Bug: 897]
+
+1998-12-08    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: changed mc to invoke mcunknown in
+	the calling context, changed locale lookups to be case insensitive
+
+1998-12-07    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* generic/tclAlloc.c (TclpRealloc): Fixed a memory allocation bug
+	where big blocks that were reallocated into a different heap
+	location were not being placed into the bigBlocks list. [Bug: 933]
+
+	* tests/msgcat.test: Added message catalog test suite.
+
+	* library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: minor bug fixes, integrated latest
+	changes from Mark Harrison.
+
+1998-12-04    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Changed code to conform to Tcl
+	coding standards.  Changed to use file join for portability.
+
+	* library/msgcat1.0: Added initial implementaion of Tcl message
+	catalog package contributed by Mark Harrison.
+
+1998-12-03    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed bug that kept
+	arguments containing spaces from being properly quoted.
+
+	* tests/defs: Changed so auto_path is set to only contain the Tcl
+	library directory.  This keeps the tests from accidentally picking
+	up stuff in installed packages. 
+
+	* generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_StringMatch): Changed to match 8.0
+	behavior in corner case where there is no closing bracket.
+
+1998-12-02    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateCommandChannel): Changed
+	reader/writer threads to have THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST so they will
+	have a chance to run whenever there is something to do.
+
+	* generic/tclIO.c (WriteBytes, WriteChars): Fixed so extraneous
+	flushes do not happen in line mode.
+	(TranslateOutputEOL): Made translation more efficient in line mode
+	and fixed a buffer overflow bug in CRLF translation. [Bug: 887]
+
+1998-12-02    <welch@SAGE>
+
+	* Updated patchlevel to 8.1b1
+
+1998-12-02    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* generic/regc_color.c (subcolor): Added check for error case to
+	avoid an out of bounds array reference.
+
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_EncodingObjCmd): Changed to avoid using
+	Tcl_DStringResult because it is not binary clean.
+
+	* generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Fixed bug in comment
+	parsing where a trailing comment looked like an incomplete
+	command. 
+
+1998-12-02    <welch@SAGE>
+
+	* Merged changes from 8.0.4, especially the new pkg_mkIndex
+
+1998-12-01    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ReadChars): Added a call to UpdateInterest
+	so we don't block when there is data sitting in the buffers.
+
+	* generic/tclTest.c (TestevalobjvObjCmd): Updated for EvalObjv
+	change.
+
+	* tests/parse.test: Updated tests for EvalObjv change.
+
+	* generic/tclParse.c (EvalObjv, Tcl_EvalObjv): Changed
+	Tcl_EvalObjv interface to remove string and length arguments,
+	preserved original interface as EvalObjv for internal use.
+
+	* generic/tcl.h: Changed Tcl_EvalObjv interface to remove string
+	and length arguments.
+
+	* doc/Eval.3: Updated documentation for Tcl_EvalObjv to remove
+	string and length arguments.
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileForeachCmd): Fixed code that
+	corrupted the exceptDepth value in the compile environment when
+	foreach failed to compile inline. [Bug: 884]
+
+	* library/encoding/euc-kr.enc: 
+	* library/encoding/ksc5601.enc: 
+	* tools/encoding/ksc5601.txt: 
+	* unix/tclUnixInit.c: Added support for Korean EUC. 
+
+	* win/tclWinChan.c (TclpGetDefaultStdChannel): added check for a
+	failure during Tcl_MakeFileChannel.
+
+1998-11-30    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): Fixed hang that occurs
+	when trying to close a pipe that is currently being waited on by
+	the notifier thread. [Bug: 607]
+
+	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (GetPermissionsAttribute): Increase size of
+	returnString buffer to avoid overflow. [Bug: 584]
+
+	* generic/tclThreadTest.c (TclThreadSend): Fixed memory leak due
+	to use of TCL_VOLATILE instead of TCL_DYNAMIC.
+
+	* generic/tclThread.c (TclRememberSyncObject): Fixed memory leak
+	caused by failure to reuse condition variables.
+
+	* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: 	(Tcl_AlertNotifier, Tcl_WaitForEvent,
+	NotifierThreadProc, Tcl_InitNotifier): Fixed race condition caused
+	by incorrect use of condition variables when sending messages
+	between threads.. [Bug: 607]
+
+	* generic/tclTestObj.c (TeststringobjCmd): MAX_STRINGS was off by one
+	so the strings array was too small.
+
+	* generic/tclCkalloc.c (Tcl_DbCkfree): Moved mutex lock so
+	ValidateMemory is done inside the mutex to avoid a race condition
+	when validate_memory is enabled. [Bug: 880]
+
+1998-11-23    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* regexec.c: more performance tuning from Henry Spencer.
+
+1998-11-17    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* tclScan.c: moved "scan" implementation out of tclCmdMZ.c and
+	added Unicode support.  This required a complete reimplementation
+	of the command to avoid using scanf(), which isn't Unicode aware.
+	Two new features were added in the process: %n to return the
+	current number of characters consumed, and XPG3-style %n$ argument
+	order specifiers similar to those provided by the "format"
+	command. [Bug: 833]
+
+	* tclAlloc.c: changed so allocated memory is always 8-byte aligned
+	to improve memory performance and to ensure that it will work on
+	systems that don't like accessing 4-byte aligned values
+	(e.g. Solaris and HP-UX). [Bug: 834]
+
+1998-11-06    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* tclVar.c (TclGetIndexedScalar): Fixed bug 796, var name was
+	getting lost before being passed to CallTraces.
+
+1998-10-21    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* added "encoding" command
+	
+	* Moved internal regexp declarations from tclInt.h to tclRegexp.h
+
+	* integrated regexp updates from Henry Spencer
+
+1998-10-15    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* tclUtf.c: added Unicode character table support
+
+	* tclInt.h: added TclUniCharIsWordChar
+
+	* tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): added "totitle" subcommand,
+	changed "wordend" and "wordstart" to properly handle Unicode word
+	characters and connector punctuation
+
+1998-10-05    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* auto.tcl, package.tcl: fixed SCCS strings
+
+	* tclIndex: updated index to reflect 8.1 files
+
+	* tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): changed to avoid modifying the
+	input string in place because name lookup operations could have
+	arbitrary side effects
+
+	* tclInterp.c: added guard against deleting current interpreter
+
+	* tclMacFile.c, tclUnixFile.c, tclWinFile.c, tclFileName.c: added
+	warnings around code that modifies strings in place
+
+	* tclExecute.c: fixed off-by-one copying error, fixed merge bugs
+
+	* tclEvent.c: changed so USE_TCLALLOC is tested for value instead
+	of definition
+
+	* tclCompCmds.c: replaced SCCS strings, added warnings around code
+	that modifies strings in place
+
+	* interp.test: added test for interp deleting itself
+
+1998-09-30    <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+	* makefile.vc: fixed so TCL_LIBRARY is set before running tcltest
+
+	* tclWin32Dll.c: removed TclpFinalize, cleanup of merges
+
