Description: gdtcl is an extension for drawing GIFs with lines, polygons,
etc. This modification adds fully scalable, rotate-able,
anti-aliased, Unicode, TrueType text string support,
using the FreeType library.
It is compatible with tcl 7.6p2 , 8.0p2 (with support only
for 255 character fonts), and tcl 8.1a2 (65536 character
Unicode fonts) and has only been tested on SPARC/Solaris 2.5.1.
A collection of TrueType fonts are available at ora.com.
The lcdmultimedia site has a port of version 1.9.4 of this extension to
Windows, using the GD 1.3 library, without LZW compression as well
as 2.0, the new minimal distribution (which requires you to do the
work to get other libraries from other sites).
The mschwart site has a version of this in beta for GD 1.7.3. It
includes improvements such as ellipses, proper arcs, and line
thicknesses.
The nsysu site has a new version which generates PNG output rather
than the proprietary GIF LZW format.
A new release, with FreeType 2 support, is expected in the near future.

The latest version is 2.2.5 .
