Description: An evaluation copy of a commercial product which provides
true language independence to the Objective-C object model.
It profides a seamless integration of the Objective-C runtime system
with other languages. With OF, one gets Objective-Tcl and
Objective-Perl, or one can purchase Objective-Tcl or Objective-Perl
separately. ObjectiveBrowser is a graphical development tool allowing
live objects within a running application to be viewed in many
object-specific ways.
Note that rumors are the licensing has changed recently,
making it easier to use TipTop packages for non-commercial
purposes.

Description: This is a strictly NeXTSTEP interface. One of the two palettes
included in this release is WWTCLWidgets one take on how to integrate
Tcl into the NeXTSTEP development environment.
The other palette makes use of the Tcl widget palette.
The other WavesWorld palettes, on
ftp://media.mit.edu/pub/WavesWorld/,
integrate Tcl into IB, complete with a suite of UI objects,
and a 3D modeling language called eve, which is basically Tcl with a
full RenderMan binding. The WWTCLWidgetsPalette includes a WWTCLInterp,
which is an objective-C wrapper around a Tcl interp.

Description: A library consists of objects and support functions for
communicating between Objective-C and Tcl/Tk. From Tcl you can send
messages to Objective-C objects and get textual representations of
what's returned. The library requires gcc-2.5.8 or higher,
Tcl-7.3, Tk-3.6, libcoll-931026, libreadline and GNU make.
There is also a NeXTStep version available as well.
The 1.0.1.s version is a bug fix version for NeXT.
