Tcl/Tk 8.6.15 (Magicsplat 8.6.15-1.0.15) and 9.0.0 (Magicsplat release
9.0.0-2.0.2).

If you install both, make sure they are in different directories and you
only have one in your PATH environment variable. (Choose Advanced

Great magic stuff ! I should have rereleased BWidget for this event,
sorry, there is a crucial unreleased bug for 9.0 only in the repository.

Thanks for all,
Harald

I hope to update the installer next week as more Tcl 9 extensions become
available. I'll pick up the bwidget update then.

Great ! BWidget is re-released.

TCLWS is the next 9.0 project...

Take care,
Harald

Thanks Ashok.

Will you be creating any new tlckits, I generally download these from:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/twapi/files/Tcl%20binaries/Tclkits%20with%20TWAPI/


The latest one I see is: tclkit-gui-8_6_13-twapi-4_7_2-x64-max.exe

These are how I manage multiple versions on my system; they've been very useful.

Not likely in the near future I'm afraid. Something changed in 8.6.14
with zlib that causes the tclkit compiles to fail.

My Tcl focus is currently completely on 9.0 and related matters so I'm
afraid 8.6 kits have taken a back seat. I have not had time for more
than a cursory look at the failure. Could be a simple fix but was not
immediately obvious.
