Arnulf P. Wiedemann

I am living in a little village in the south of Germany near Augsburg (Bavaria)

I have about 30 years of programming behind me using languages like: Algol60, Pascal, BCPL, CPM-80, C, C++, Icon, Java, Tcl and also awk, sed, sh-scripts ...

After all the years I like mostly to program in Tcl/Tk

Programming with Tcl/Tk since 1995.

I have been and am using Tcl/Tk and Itcl in commercial applications in the company I am working for, mostly for client server applications (client on windows, server Linux/Unix protocol http using apache server and rivet, with oracle and mysql databases).

At home I am using Tcl/Tk Itcl for doing a lot of stuff on my computers for example a GUI for administrating my CD's in a mysql database using ID3 tags or making a selection on that database and send that to xmms for playing etc. That was before I found snackamp.

Projects:
   * tclurtp the low level part of tcluno [https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcluno] an uno interface for OpenOffice.org written in pure Tcl.

Work in progress:
   * reimplementation of [Itcl] called [itcl-ng] based on [tclOO], trying to make that an extension using only stubs interfaces to the Tcl core 2008-12-11 beta version released
   * reimplementing [NexTk] based on [itcl-ng] called [ntkWidget]
   * implementing a wrapper for OpenGL gl* functions generated mostly from GL/gl.h by a Tcl script [tclGL]
   * implementing a Tcl wrapper for GLFW [http://glfw.sourceforge.net/] but with multiple windows [tclGLMWFW]
   * collecting ideas for a Tcl based web framework [ToW Tcl on WebFreeWay] maybe it will be called TRAX (Tcl's Rapid webAccess eXtension). Later on I plan to start the implementation as a "fun" project
   * [Reporting Tools with Tcl] some tools to allow building easy GUI's for reports to be shown as web pages or in a client

One evening every month you can find me at TUGM [http://www.tugm.de].
