This directory contains unsupported tools used to build parts of Tcl
for distribution.


uniParse.tcl -- Script for converting the Unicode character database
	into a compact table stored in generic/tclUniData.c.

uniClass.tcl -- Script for generating regexp class tables from the Tcl
	"string is" classes

Generating HTML files.
The tcltk-man2html.tcl script generates a nice set of HTML with
good cross references. Use it like
    cd unix
    ./configure
    make html
This script is very picky about the organization of man pages,
effectively acting as a style enforcer.
The resulting documentation can be found at
    /tmp/dist/tcl<version>/html
