rss reader for older tcl library?

2005-05-05T04:55:40-04:00

Thanks for reply guys. (especially Thanks to De Kus, you always helpfull)

Yes, De Kus.
it's not working after tcl 8.0.5 versoin.
all versions after tcl 8.0.5 does not working.
i heard that from tcl 8.1, the core team changed something related encoding.
like to use UTF-8 for default which is not friendly with my language.
probably there will be some fuctions as you said.
but as an end-user, i don't know where to edit.
will you point me there? hehe
however always Thank you for answers D.K and thank you gb too.

PS/ i didn't know that germans uses same emoticon with asians.

are you sure newer versions don't support multi-byte characters (characters can have up to 3 bytes ^^), maybe just the lib is missing in the default package of the newer version.
for 8.4 they should be under .../lib/tcl8.4/encoding
if they are there and its still not working, it might be the problem that TCL actually really figured out the character and converted it to another enconding while phrasing ^-^. I believe there were some functions to control the encodings (they are not called ENcoding for nothing ^^).

rss reader for older tcl library?

hello.
i've found that there's one rss reader script for egg.
but the script required newest tcl library.
i'm using tcl 8.0.5, because of language support.
from that version tcl doesn't support double-width languages.
so please inform me, if you can fix rssnews.tcl (at egghelp archive) to work with tcl 8.0.5
or make new one for me and every other asians.

Thanks in advance
