Re: [TCLCORE] Call For Votes: TIPs #123 #137 #139 | Re: [TCLCORE] Call For Votes: TIPs #123 #137 #139

TIP #123: YES.

>  TIP #137: Script Encoding Specification

TIP #137: NO.

I like the -encoding <encoding> , but not -e:<encoding>.  I see no
reason for the latter, whereas the former uses the standard command
line option style and is more comprehensible in any use.

I agree with DGP that last warnings should always be called before a
vote - we could easily have fixed that one point prior to vote (and
yes ... I should have noted it when first proposed, but I knew of it
preproposal as just -encoding, so someone snuck in -e:... later).

BTW, I don't like just -e either.  Perl uses that for "execute".  If
someone wants to truncate it as -e or -enc then they can, but I don't
think is should be an condoned style.

TIP #139: YES.
