  • HTML doc for tcllib

    From Helmut Giese@21:1/5 to All on Fri Feb 24 17:25:41 2023
    Hello out there,
    is there a site from where one can download the HTML docs for tcllib?
    I am aware of
    https://core.tcl-lang.org/tcllib/doc/trunk/embedded/md/toc.md
    but I would very much prefer to have the docs on my machine (energy
    wise it just doen't make any sense to again and again load the same
    documents).
    Any link will be greatly appreciated
    Helmut

    Do you like the CHM format?

    https://groups.google.com/g/comp.lang.tcl/c/x8Ct0XZyO2Q

    I use that one every day.

    You could convert them yourself. There's various converters but if you
    are on windows, notepad++ has a markdown viewer plugin which can save as
    html or pdf.

    Thank you all for your responses. I apologize for the delay but there
    were some familial problems I needed to take care of.

    Luc: I have this file but I very much prefer HTML files because they
    can go into different tabs of one browser window and /stay/ there.

    pd: Thanks to Alex I have them now on my machine.

    Alex: Many thanks for the code sample. The first run stalled on some
    amazon page, but then I looked at 'wget --help' and used the options
    to limit the retry count and to give a limit for time outs - and now I
    have them all on my machine.

    Many thanks to you again
    Helmut

    I thought I posted this, but problems with astraweb. Byebye astraweb,
    hello eternal september.

    The html docs come with the source.

    wget https://core.tcl-lang.org/tcllib/uv/tcllib-1.21.tar.gz
    tar zxvf tcllib-1.21.tar.gz
    cd tcllib-1.21/idoc/www/
    ls


    image index.html tcllib toc0.html toc1.html toc2.html toc.html
