punk tcl runtimes for various platforms
These are self contained Tcl interpreters that have a few necessary extensions, but can be used as the basis to build tclkit or zipfs based 'kits' that contain other extensions, including those that contain loadable binary modules.
punk tcl runtimes can all load Tk as a loadable extension
- there is no separate Tk runtime
The recommended current runtime for Windows is tclsh902z.exe as it has tcllibc built in, which can dramatically improve performance in some situations.
In general, the startup, interp creation and library loading performance is better on zipfs based runtimes than those built on tclkit.
Platforms: win32-x86_64 (zipfs and tclkit based) linux-x86_64 (tclkit based)
Builtin packages: Thread, tcllibc
FreeBSD,Linux,Macosx with other selected architectures to come. The punk kit constructing infrastructure is intended to be cross-platform, and has been minimally tested on Linux & Freebsd. It currently requires static tclsh with zipfs or tclkitsh binaries to be manually sourced for non-windows platforms.
