Interesting. Perhaps it would be worthy to do build of 8.4.20 as well? It's
more resource-saving, you know, which is significant for DOS. And for most
applications "good enough"


On your suggestion i built Tcl 8.4.20 using DJGPP, but it crashes somewhere in TclpSetInitialEncodings(). It seems to recurse infinitely, similar to the problem described below [1]. In case you are interested, you can find an earlier DOS port of Tcl 8.4 below [2].
