tkrun is a tk script generator allows you to build a Tcl/Tk GUI that executes another program or script. You don't need to learn Tcl/Tk (although that is still much easier than learning to program a GUI in a language like C or C++). TkRun is probably most useful if you use sliders, radio- and checkbuttons and perhaps file browsers. For pure text entry the speedup you gain in your life is only modest, if not even less. The receiving program MUST currently conform to the ``keyword=value'' (but probably not too hard to add some ``-option value'' type interface). I am submitting this code in the hope it will be tried out and found useful, but problems and suggestions for improvement be reported for updates which I am planning. adass97.ps.gz: a small poster contribution I gave at the annual ADASS conference. I represented the status at the 0.1 release. redo: Also added is a tiny little tcl/tk script 'redo' that I found in John Ousterhout's book that I find quite useful in certain situations. Should speak for itself :-) Feel free to redistribute the code (please keep the original copyright and GPL notice) but I appreciate receiving changed code, particularly if it is an improvement on my version. The latest "x.y" version can be found in ftp://ftp.astro.umd.edu/progs/nemo/tkrun-x.y.tar.gz or see the NEMO home page at: http://www.astro.umd.edu/nemo/ - Peter Teuben
