Tickle
A {text editor}, file translator and {TCL}
{interpreter} for the {Macintosh}.
Version 5.0v1. The text editor breaks the 32K limit (like
{MPW}).
The file translation utilities support {drag and drop}
handling via tcl scripts of {BinHex}, {MacBinary}, {Apple
Computer} Single/Double, {StuffIt} (with engine), {Unix}
{compress}, {Unix} {tar} and {UUencode} files as well as text
translation.
Tickle implements tcl 7.0 with {tclX} extensions and
{Macintosh} equivalents of {Unix}'s {ls}, {pwd}, {cd}
commands. It provides Macintosh access to {Resource Manager},
{Communications Toolbox}, {OSA} Components (and
{AppleScript}), {Editions} (publish and subscribe) and {Apple
Events} (including AEBuild and AEPrint). {OSA Script} support
allows programming of any OSA scripting component within
Tickle interpreter windows. It provides the OSAtcl and OSAJ
{J}/{APL} extensions and creates "Ticklets" which are small
{application program}s that carry only the tcl script and use
code in the OSAtcl component to drive an application that
allows {drag and drop} with tcl scripts. Tickle is scriptable
and recordable.
