+ GlobTypeData structure. [Bug: 2363]
+
+1999-12-10 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/var.test:
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: fixed problem where setting to {} array
+ would intermittently not work. (Fontaine) [Bug: 3339]
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: optimized INST_TRY_CVT_TO_NUMERIC to
+ recognize boolean objects. (Spjuth) [Bug: 2815]
+
+ * tests/info.test:
+ * tests/parseOld.test:
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c:
+ * generic/tclProc.c: changed Tcl_UplevelObjCmd (uplevel) and
+ Tcl_EvalObjCmd (eval) to use TCL_EVAL_DIRECT in the single arg
+ case as well, to take advantage of potential pure list input
+ optimization. This means that it won't get byte compiled though,
+ which should be acceptable.
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: made Tcl_EvalObjEx pure list object aware in
+ the TCL_EVAL_DIRECT case for efficiency.
+ * generic/tclUtil.c: made Tcl_ConcatObj pure list object aware,
+ and return a list object in that case [Bug: 2098 2257]
+
+ * generic/tclMain.c: changed Tcl_Main to not constantly reuse the
+ commandPtr object (interactive case) as it could be shared. (Fellows)
+
+ * unix/configure.in:
+ * unix/tcl.m4:
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c: removed checking for compatible vfork
+ function and use of the vfork function. Modern VM systems rarely
+ suffer any performance degradation when fork is used, and it
+ solves multiple problems with vfork. Users that still want vfork
+ can add -Dfork=vfork to the compile flags. [Bug: 942 2228 1312]
+
+1999-12-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/aclocal.m4: made it just include tcl.m4
+
+ * doc/exec.n:
+ * doc/open.n:
+ * win/tclWin32Dll.c:
+ * win/tclWinChan.c:
+ * win/tclWinFCmd.c:
+ * win/tclWinInit.c:
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c:
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: removed all code that supported Win32s. It
+ was no longer officially supported, and likely didn't work anyway.
+ * win/makefile.vc: removed 16 bit stuff, cleaned up.
+
+ * win/tcl16.rc:
+ * win/tclWin16.c:
+ * win/winDumpExts.c: these files have been removed from the
+ source tree (no longer necessary to build)
+
+1999-12-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/io.test: removed 'knownBug' tests that were for
+ unsupported0, which is now fcopy (that already has tests)
+
+ * mac/tclMacPort.h: added utime.h include
+
+ * generic/tclDate.c:
+ * unix/Makefile.in: fixed make gendate to swap const with CONST
+ so it uses the Tcl defined CONST type [Bug: 3521]
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c: removed panic that could occur in FlushChannel
+ when a "blocking" channel would receive EAGAIN, instead treating
+ it the same as non-blocking. [Bug: 3773]
+
+ * generic/tclUtil.c: fixed Tcl_ScanCountedElement to not step
+ beyond the end of the counted string [Bug: 3336]
+
+1999-12-03 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/load.n: added note about NT's buggy handling of './' with
+ LoadLibrary
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: fixed error handling in http::Event
+ [Bug: 3752]
+
+ * tests/env.test: removed knownBug limitation from working test
+ * tests/all.tcl: ensured that ::tcltest::testsDirectory would be
+ set to an absolute path
+
+ * tests/expr-old.test:
+ * tests/parseExpr.test:
+ * tests/string.test:
+ * generic/tclGet.c:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclObj.c:
+ * generic/tclParseExpr.c:
+ * generic/tclUtil.c:
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: added TclCheckBadOctal routine to enhance
+ error message checking for when users use invalid octal numbers
+ (like 08), as well as replumbed the Expr*Funcs with a new
+ VerifyExprObjType to simplify type handling. [Bug: 2467]
+
+ * tests/expr.test:
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: fixed 'bad code length' error for
+ 'expr + {[incr]}' case, with new test case [Bug: 3736]
+ and seg fault on 'expr + {[error]}' (different cause) that
+ was caused by a correct optimization that didn't correctly
+ track how it was modifying the source string in the opt.
+ The optimization was removed, which means that:
+ expr 1 + {[string length abc]}
+ will be not be compiled inline as before, but this should be
+ written:
+ expr {1 + [string length abc]}
+ which will be compiled inline for speed. This prevents
+ expr 1 + {[mindless error]}
+ from seg faulting, and only affects optimizations for
+ degenerate cases [Bug: 3737]
+
+1999-12-01 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls :
+ * generic/tclMain.c :
+ * unix/tclAppInit.c:
+ * win/tclAppInit.c: Added two new internal functions,
+ TclSetStartupScriptFileName() and TclGetStartupScriptFileName()
+ and added hooks into the main() code for supporting TclPro and
+ other "big" shells more easily without requiring a copy of the
+ main() code.
+
+ * generic/tclEncoding.c:
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: Moved encoding-related startup code from
+ tclEvent.c into the more appropriate tclEncoding.c.
+
+1999-11-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+

+ correctly handles resetting translation and encoding.
+
+ * generic/tclLoad.c: #def'd out the unloading of DLLs at finalize
+ time for Unix in TclFinalizeLoad. [Bug: 2560 3373] Should be

+
+ * win/tclWinTime.c: fixed handling of %Z on NT for time zones
+ that don't have DST.

+
+1999-11-23 Scott Stanton <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Fixed bug where tcltest output
+ went to stdout instead of the specified output file in some
+ cases.
+
+1999-11-19 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

+ * tools/tcl.wse.in: added tcltest1.0 library to distribution list
+
+ * doc/http.n:
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl:
+ * library/http2.1/pkgIndex.tcl: updated http package to 2.2
+
+1999-11-18 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: added defined for _THREAD_SAFE in --enable-threads
+ case; added check for pthread_mutex_init in libc; in AIX case,

+
+ * generic/tclIOSock.c: changed int to size_t type for len

+ * generic/tclScan.c: finished support for inline scan by
+ supporting XPG identifiers.
+
+ * doc/http.n:
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: added register and unregister
+ commands to http:: package (better support for tls/SSL),
+ as well as -type argument to http::geturl. [RFE: 2617]
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: removed extra decr of numLevels in

+
+1999-11-17 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Correctly fixed the -timeout
+ problem mentioned in the 10-29 change. Also added error
+ handling for failed writes on the socket during the protocol.
+
+1999-11-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/open.n: corrected docs for 'a' open mode.
+
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: changed Tcl_Alloc to ckalloc
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclObj.c: rolled back changes from 1999-10-29
+ Purify noted new leaks with that code

+ and koi8-r.enc files
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: added recognition of pthreads library for AIX
+
+1999-10-29 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Modified the TclNewObj and TclDecrRefCount
+ in two ways. First, in the case of TCL_THREADS, we do not use
+ the special Tcl_Obj allocator because that is a source of
+ lock contention. Second, general code cleanup to eliminate
+ duplicated code. In particular, TclDecrRefCount now uses
+ TclFreeObj instead of duplicating that code, so it is now
+ identical to Tcl_DecrRefCount.
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: Changed Tcl_NewObj so it uses the
+ TclNewObj macro instead of duplicating the code. Adjusted
+ TclFreeObj so it understands the TCL_THREADS case described
+ above.
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a bug in the handling of
+ the state(status) variable when the -timeout flag is specified.
+ Previously it was possible to leave the status undefined
+ instead of empty, which caused errors in http::status

+ which is not portable).
+
+ * generic/tclEnv.c: fixed possible ABR error in environ array
+
+ * tests/scan.test:
+ * generic/tclScan.c: added support for use of inline scan,
+ XPG3 currently not included
+
+ * tests/incr.test:
+ * tests/set.test:
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c: fixed improper bytecode handling of
+ 'eval {set array($unknownvar) 5}' (also for incr) [Bug: 3184]
+
+ * win/tclWinTest.c: added testvolumetype command, as atime is
+ completely ignored for Windows FAT file systems

+ * generic/tclCompile.c: removed savedChar trick that appeared to
+ be causing a segv when the literal table was released

+ when indexing into one (test case string-5.16) [Bug: 2871]
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: protected gets with catch [Bug: 2665]
+
+1999-10-19 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/tcltest.test:
+ * doc/tcltest.n:
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed the extra return at the
+ end of the tcltest.tcl file, added version information about tcl.
+
+ Applied patches sent in by Andreas Kupries to add helper procs for
+ debug output, add 3 new flags (-testsdir, -load, -loadfile), and
+ internally refactors common code for dealing with paths into
+ separate procedures. [Bug: 2838, 2842]
+
+ Merged code from core-8-2-1 branch that changes the checks for the
+ value of tcl_interactive to also incorporate a check for the
+ existence of the variable.
+
+ * tests/autoMkindex.test:
+ * tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Explicitly cd to
+ ::tcltest::testsDirectory at the beginning of the test run
+
+ * tests/basic.test: Use version information defined in tcltest
+ instead of hardcoded version number
+
+ * tests/socket.test: package require tcltest before attempting to
+ use variable defined in tcltest namespace

+ * tests/unixNotfy.test: Added explicit exits needed to avoid
+ problems when the tests area run in wish.
+
+1999-10-12 Jim Ingham <jingham@scriptics.com>
+
+ * mac/tclMacLoad.c: Stupid bug - we converted the filename to
+ external, but used the unconverted version.
+ * mac/tclMacFCmd.c: Fix a merge error in the bug fix for [Bug: 2869]
+
+1999-10-12 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

+ than include sys/types.h, which may not exist).
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Added the Windows configure script to the
+ distribution file list, already shipping configure.in and the .m4
+ files, but needed the configure script itself.
+
+ * win/makefile.vc: Changed version number of DDE package in VC++
+ makefile to use 1.1 instead of 1.0.

+ Added a count for the FD_ACCEPT to take care of this. Tested on

+ compile/execute flags. Changed to store either an object pointer
+ or a string pointer in the TclRegexp structure. Changed to avoid
+ adding a reference to the object or copying the string.
+
+ * generic/regcomp.c: lint
+
+ * tests/reg.test:
+ * generic/regex.h:
+ * generic/regc_lex.c: Added REG_BOSONLY flag to allow Expect to
+ iterate through a string an only find matches that start at the
+ current position within the string.

+1999-05-18 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinChan.c: Modified initialization code to avoid

+
+ * unix/Makefile.in:
+ * unix/tclAppInit.c: Minor cleanup related to Xt notifier.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Tcl now looks for
+ an encoding subfield in the LANG/LC_ALL variables in cases where
+ the locale is not found in the locale table. Ensure that
+ setlocale() is called at least once so X11 will initialize
+ properly. Also, forces the LC_NUMERIC locale to be "C" so numeric
+ processing in scripts is not affected by the current locale
+ setting. [Bug: 1989]
+
+ * generic/tclRegexp.c: Increased per-thread regexp cache to 30
+ slots. This seems to be about the right number for larger
+ applications like exmh. [Bug: 1063]
+
+1999-05-12 <stanton@scriptics.com>

+ * generic/tclRegexp.h:
+ * generic/tclRegexp.c: Replaced the per-interpreter regexp cache
+ with a per-thread cache. Changed the Regexp object to take
+ advantage of this extra cache. Added a reference count to the
+ TclRegexp type so regexps can be shared by multiple objects.
+ Removed the per-interp regexp cache from the interpreter. Now
+ regexps can be used with no need for an interpreter. [Bug: 1063]
+
+ * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpSetVariables): Avoid calling GetUserName

+
+ * generic/tclLoadNone.c: Updated to use current interfaces, added
+ TclpUnloadFile. [Bug: 2003]
+

+ -nocase option to "string map". Changed index syntax to allow
+ integer or end?-integer? instead of a full expression. This is
+ much simpler with safeTcl scripts since it avoids double
+ substitution issues.
+
+ * doc/Utf.3:

+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd):
+ * generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetIntForIndex): Applied Jeff Hobbs's
+ string patch which includes the following changes [Bug: 1845]:
+
+ - string compare now takes optional length arg (for strncmp
+ behavior)
+
+ - added string equal (just a few lines of code blended
+ in with string compare)
+
+ - added string icompare/iequal for case-insensitive comparisons
+
+ - string index's index can now be ?end[+-]?expression
+ I made this change in the private TclGetIntForIndex,
+ which means that the list commands also benefit, as
+ well as string range, et al.
+
+ - added [string repeat string count]
+ Repeats given string number of times
+
+ - added string replace, string equiv to lreplace
+ (quasi opposite of string range):
+ string replace first last ?string?
+ Example of use, replacing end of string with ...
+ should the string be more than 16 chars long:
+ string replace $string 16 end "..."
+ This just returns the string len < 16, so it
+ will only affect the long strings.
+
+ - added optional first and last args to string to*
+ This allows you to just affect certain regions of
+ a string with the command (like just capping the
+ first letter). I found the original totitle to
+ be too draconian to be useful.
+
+ - added [string map charMap string]
+ where charMap is a {from to from to} list that equates to
+ what one might get from [array get]. Each and
+ can be multiple chars (or none at all). For Tcl/CGI users,
+ this is a MAJOR speed booster.
+
+ * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Changed to avoid
+ modifying eval'ed strings that are already null terminated.
+ [Bug: 1793]
+
+ * tests/binary.test:
+ * generic/tclBinary.c (DupByteArrayInternalRep): Fixed bug where
+ type was not being set in duplicated object. [Bug: 1975, 2047]
+
+1999-04-30 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * Changed version to 8.1.1.
+
+1999-04-30 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * Merged changes from 8.1.0 branch:
+
+ * generic/tclParse.c: Fixed memory leak in CommandComplete.
+
+ * generic/tclPlatDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * tools/genStubs.tcl: Added 'extern "C" {}' block around the stub
+ table pointer declaration so the stub library can be used from
+ C++. [Bug: 1934]
+
+ * Lots of documentation and other release engineering fixes.
+
+1999-04-28 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * mac/tclMacResource.c:
+ * generic/tclListObj.c:
+ * generic/tclObj.c:
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c: Changed to avoid freeing the string
+ representation before freeing the internal rep. This helps with
+ debugging since the string rep will still be valid when the free
+ proc is invoked.
+
+1999-04-27 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclLiteral.c (TclHideLiteral): Fixed so hidden literals
+ get duplicated to avoid accidental sharing in the global object
+ table.
+
+1999-04-23 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * tools/genStubs.tcl: Changed to avoid the need for forward

+
+1999-04-23 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/encoding/koi8-r.enc:
+ * tools/encoding/koi8-r.txt: Added support for the koi8-r Cyrillic
+ encoding. [Bug: 1771]
+
+1999-04-22 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinFCmd.c:
+ * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Changed uses of "try" to "__try", since that
+ is the actual keyword. This eliminates the need for some -D flags
+ from the makefile.
+
+ * generic/tclPort.h: Added include of tcl.h since it defines
+ various Windows macros that are needed before deciding which
+ platform porting file to use.
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: lint
+
+ * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): Added call to TclWinInit
+ when building a static library since DllMain will not be invoked.
+ This could break old code that explicitly called TclWinInit, but
+ should be simpler in the long run.
+
+1999-04-22 Scott Stanton <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.decls:
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: Added TclSetByteCodeFromAny that takes a
+ hook procedure to invoke after compilation but before the byte
+ codes are emitted. This makes it possible to do postprocessing on
+ the compiled byte codes before the ByteCode is generated.
+
+ * generic/tclLiteral.c: Added TclHideLiteral and TclAddLiteralObj
+ to make it possible to create local unshared literal objects.
+
+ * win/tclWinInit.c:
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c: Changed initial search path to match that
+ found used by tcl_findLibrary.
+
+1999-04-22 <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPort.h:
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: Added code to use WinSock 2.0 API on NT to
+ avoid creating a window to handle sockets. API not available on
+ Win95 and needs to be fixed on Win98, until then continue to use
+ the older (window-based) scheme on those two OSes.
+
+1999-04-15 <stanton@scriptics.com>

+ * library/encoding/euc-cn.enc:
+ * tools/encoding/gb2312.txt:
+ * tools/encoding/cp950.txt:
+ * tools/encoding/Makefile: Restored the double byte definition of
+ GB2312 and added the EUC-CN encoding. EUC-CN is a variant of
+ GB2312 that shifts the characters into bytes with the high bit set
+ and includes ASCII as a subset. [Bug: 632]
+
+1999-04-13 <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: Apply patch to allow write access to a socket
+ if FD_WRITE is sent but FD_CONNECT is not. Some strange problem
+ with either Win32 or a socket driver. [Bug: 1664 1776]
+
+1999-04-09 <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Fixed notifier deadlock situation when the
+ pipe used to talk back notifier thread is filled with data. When
+ calling the write() function to feed data down that pipe, unlock
+ the notifierMutex to allow the notifier to wake up again. Found
+ as a result of the focus.test for Tk hanging. [Bug: 1700]
+
+1999-04-06 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/unixNotfy.test: Fixed hang in tests when built with thread

+
+ * generic/tclVar.c:
+ * generic/tclEnv.c: Moved the "array set" C level code into a

+ this API to create an env array w/ no elements.
+
+ * generic/tclEnv.c:
+ * generic/tclWinInit.h:
+ * generic/tclUnixInit.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Made the Env module I18N compliant. Changed the

+ 1299, 1500]
+
+1999-04-05 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/io.test: Minor test cleanup.

+
+ * tests/safe.test:
+ * doc/safe.n:
+ * generic/tclBasic.c:
+ * library/safe.tcl: The encoding command is not safe as-is, so
+ create a safe alias to mask out the "encoding system <name>" but

+ and updated the man page for Safe Tcl.
+
+1999-04-05 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/winTime.test:
+ * win/tclWinTime.c: Fixed crash in clock command that occurred

+
+ * tests/platform.test:
+ * tests/fileName.test: Fixed broken tests.
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c: Moved global regexps into thread local

+ * win/tclAppInit.c:
+ * unix/tclAppInit.c:

+
+ * library/init.tcl: Various small changes requested by Jan Nijtmans.
+ - If the variable $tcl_library contains the empty string, this
+ empty string will be put in $auto_path. This is not useful at all,
+ it only slows down later package processing.
+ - If the variable tcl_pkgPath is not set, the "unset __dir"
+ fails. Thich makes init.tcl totally unusable. Better put a "catch"
+ around it.
+ - In the function tcl_findLibraries, the "string match" function
+ only works correctly if $tcl_patchLevel is in one of the forms
+ "?.?a?", "?.?b?" or "?.?.?". Could a "regexp" be used instead,
+ then it allows anything to be appended to the patchLevel
+ string. And it is more efficient.
+ - The tclPkgSetup function assumes that if $type != "load" then
+ the type must be "source". This needn't be true. Some users want
+ to add their own setup types.
+ [RFE: 1138] [Bug: 978]

+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed bug that kept
+ arguments containing spaces from being properly quoted.
+
+ * tests/defs: Changed so auto_path is set to only contain the Tcl

+
+1998-12-02 <stanton@GASPODE>

+
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_EncodingObjCmd): Changed to avoid using

+
+ * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Fixed bug in comment

+ command.
+
+1998-12-02 <welch@SAGE>
+
+ * Merged changes from 8.0.4, especially the new pkg_mkIndex
+
+1998-12-01 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ReadChars): Added a call to UpdateInterest
+ so we don't block when there is data sitting in the buffers.
+
+ * generic/tclTest.c (TestevalobjvObjCmd): Updated for EvalObjv
+ change.
+
+ * tests/parse.test: Updated tests for EvalObjv change.
+
+ * generic/tclParse.c (EvalObjv, Tcl_EvalObjv): Changed

+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): Fixed hang that occurs
+ when trying to close a pipe that is currently being waited on by
+ the notifier thread. [Bug: 607]
+
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (GetPermissionsAttribute): Increase size of
+ returnString buffer to avoid overflow. [Bug: 584]
+
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c (TclThreadSend): Fixed memory leak due
+ to use of TCL_VOLATILE instead of TCL_DYNAMIC.
+
+ * generic/tclThread.c (TclRememberSyncObject): Fixed memory leak
+ caused by failure to reuse condition variables.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: (Tcl_AlertNotifier, Tcl_WaitForEvent,

+ so the strings array was too small.
+
+ * generic/tclCkalloc.c (Tcl_DbCkfree): Moved mutex lock so
+ ValidateMemory is done inside the mutex to avoid a race condition
+ when validate_memory is enabled. [Bug: 880]
+
+1998-11-23 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * regexec.c: more performance tuning from Henry Spencer.
+
+1998-11-17 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * tclScan.c: moved "scan" implementation out of tclCmdMZ.c and
+ added Unicode support. This required a complete reimplementation
+ of the command to avoid using scanf(), which isn't Unicode aware.
+ Two new features were added in the process: %n to return the
+ current number of characters consumed, and XPG3-style %n$ argument
+ order specifiers similar to those provided by the "format"
+ command. [Bug: 833]
+
+ * tclAlloc.c: changed so allocated memory is always 8-byte aligned
+ to improve memory performance and to ensure that it will work on
+ systems that don't like accessing 4-byte aligned values
+ (e.g. Solaris and HP-UX). [Bug: 834]
+
+1998-11-06 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * tclVar.c (TclGetIndexedScalar): Fixed bug 796, var name was

+
+ * tclInt.h: added TclUniCharIsWordChar

+ characters and connector punctuation

+
+ * auto.tcl, package.tcl: fixed SCCS strings
+

+
+ * tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): changed to avoid modifying the
+ input string in place because name lookup operations could have
+ arbitrary side effects
+
+ * tclInterp.c: added guard against deleting current interpreter
+
+ * tclMacFile.c, tclUnixFile.c, tclWinFile.c, tclFileName.c: added
+ warnings around code that modifies strings in place
+

+
+ * tclEvent.c: changed so USE_TCLALLOC is tested for value instead
+ of definition
+
+ * tclCompCmds.c: replaced SCCS strings, added warnings around code
+ that modifies strings in place
+
+ * interp.test: added test for interp deleting itself
