Windows Mobile 2003 is Microsoft's re-branding of their [PocketPC] [Windows/CE] based operating system for the post PocketPC 2002 version.

[MNO] I haven't yet been able to get Tcl/Tk to run correctly on this platform with celib [http://www.rainer-keuchel.de/wince/celib.html]- some things work, but sockets in particular seem to be broken.  

Sockets code triggers an error which leads to a dialog box with "tcl: select: 10022" in it, both when using the Rainer Keuchel Tcl 8.4a2 and the 8.4.6 port by [Jeffrey Hobbs].  I did see a reference [http://www.tek-tips.com/gviewthread.cfm/lev2/4/lev3/32/pid/287/qid/669645] in an online discussion forum to this same message where the poster reckoned that the error occurred when there was no data on the socket.  This could be the case in my application also since I see some data appear before the dialog box pops up and the application dies.

Other code (e.g. iFile) seems to work 

I suspect, however, this sockets error may be a problem in celib under [WM2003], rather than in Tcl/Tk itself.  My preliminary attempts to compile celib specifically for [WM2003] using MS eVC++ 4 have failed miserably, but this could just be that my eVC environment is not set up correctly yet.
