Does that mean that you wish to have a tcl script (perhaps named obsolete.tcl) that implements the obsolete syntax using the new syntax? That would provide a simple upgrade path for users while still excising the old syntax from the main code base. It is also clear to the end users that they are using an obsolete syntax.
Are there other syntax changes that should be made before 1.0? If so, what are they?
Do you wish me to update the patch to include the obsolete.tcl idea? -- Rick Altherr [EMAIL PROTECTED]"He said he hadn't had a byte in three days. I had a short, so I split it with him."
