ActiveState today released Tcl Dev Kit 5.0. With both new features and 
performance improvements, Tcl Dev Kit (TDK) 5.0 represents a significant 
upgrade to the essential toolkit for Tcl/Tk programmers.

In TDK 5.0, TclApp---for building self-contained, installation-free 
executables for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Solaris, AIX, and HP-UX---has 
been significantly enhanced to improve cross-platform wrapping. And TDK 
5.0 users can now create multi-architecture starkits.

In addition, TDK Checker, the static Tcl syntax analyzer, has been 
improved to give users more control over syntax checking options and 
output, as well as recommend corrected code for common coding mistakes. 
Today's release also includes support for Tcl 8.6, which is expected to 
be final in November.

"This latest TDK raises the bar for Tcl development tools with a new 
level of ease of use for deployment and smarter and more flexible 
analysis of Tcl applications," says Jeff Hobbs, Senior Tcl Developer and 
Director of the Languages Business Division at ActiveState.
