+1. Introduction
+---------------
+
+This is the README file for the Macintosh version of the Tcl
+scripting language. The home page for the Mac/Tcl info is
+ http://www.tcl.tk/software/mac/
+
+A summary of what's new in this release is at
+ http://www.tcl.tk/software/tcltk/8.5.html
+
+A summary of Macintosh-specific features is at
+ http://www.tcl.tk/software/mac/features.html
+
+2. The Distribution
+-------------------
+
+Macintosh Tcl is distributed in three different forms. This should
+make it easier to only download what you need. Substitute <version>
+with the version you wish to use. The packages are as follows:
+
+mactk<version>.sea.hqx
+
+ This distribution is a "binary" only release. It contains an
+ installer program that will install a 68k, PowerPC, or Fat
+ version of the "Tcl Shell" and "Wish" applications. In addition,
+ it installs the Tcl & Tk libraries in the Extensions folder inside
+ your System Folder.
+
+mactcltk-full-<version>.sea.hqx
+
+ This release contains the full release of Tcl and Tk for the
+ Macintosh plus the More Files packages which Macintosh Tcl and Tk
+ rely on.
+
+mactcl-source-<version>.sea.hqx
+
+ This release contains the complete source for Tcl. In
+ addition, Metrowerks CodeWarrior libraries and project files
+ are included. However, you must already have the More Files
+ package to compile this code.
+
+The "html" subdirectory contains reference documentation in
+in the HTML format. You may also find these pages at:
+
+ http://www.tcl.tk/man/
+
+3. Compiling Tcl
+----------------
+
+In order to compile Macintosh Tcl you must have the
+following items:
+
+ CodeWarrior Pro 5+
+ Mac Tcl (sources)
+ More Files 1.4.9
+
+The included project files should work fine. However, for
+current release notes please check this page:
