# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. # Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and # the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. # You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| itcl: itcl (Object-oriented Programming Contructs to Tcl) itcl: itcl: [incr Tcl] provides the extra language support needed to build large itcl: Tcl/Tk applications.

Each object is a bag of data with itcl: a set of procedures or "methods" that are used to manipulate it. itcl: Objects are organized into "classes" with identical characteristics, itcl: and classes can inherit functionality from one another. itcl: itcl: This package contains version 3.4 of itcl which is required by some itcl: programs.
