They manipulate +or use Macintosh resources and provide administration for open +resource file references. + +.SH DESCRIPTION +.PP +\fBTcl_MacEvalResource\fR extends the \fBsource\fR command to +Macintosh resources. It sources Tcl code from a Text resource. +Currently only sources the resource by name, file IDs may be supported +at a later date. +.PP +\fBTcl_MacConvertTextResource\fR converts a TEXT resource into a Tcl +suitable string. It mallocs the returned memory, converts '\r' to +'\n', and appends a NULL. The caller has the responsibility for +freeing the memory. +.PP +\fBTcl_MacFindResource\fR provides a higher level interface for +loading resources. It is used by \fBresource read\fR. +.PP +\fBTcl_NewOSTypeObj\fR is used to create a new resource name type +object. The object type is "ostype". +.PP +\fBTcl_SetOSTypeObj\fR modifies an object to be a resource type and to +have the specified long value. +.PP +\fBTcl_GetOSTypeFromObj\fR attempts to return an int from the Tcl +object "objPtr". If the object is not already an int, an attempt will +be made to convert it to one. +.PP +\fBTcl_MacSetEventProc\fR sets the event handling procedure for the +application. This function will be passed all incoming Mac events. +This function usually controls the console or some other entity like +Tk. + +.SH RESOURCE TYPES +.PP +Resource types are 4-byte values used by the macintosh resource +facility to tag parts of the resource fork in a file so that the OS +knows how to handle them. As all 4 bytes are restricted to printable +characters such a type can be interpreted as a 4 character string too. + +.SH KEYWORDS +macintosh, mac, resource, notifier |
