Free Packages
These pages describe some of the free packages provided by Noumena Corporation.

These packages are used internally, and are known to work under local conditions. However these are not supported products. We'll be happy to hear about any problems or fixes and will merge updates into the packages when time permits, but these packages are provided as-is, with no guarantee of usability, correctness, etc.

Client-Server Skeleton Client-Server Skeleton. These two scripts provide a simple outline for writing Tcl/Tk based client/server applications. The standard socket controls are here (opening a socket, waiting for input, etc), and you just add the code to process the data.

Note: The client/server skeleton uses parseArgs from the Tools package.

dlopen extension The dlopen extension loads a shared library that does not contain a xx_Init entry point on Posix or Windows platforms. This allows loading extensions that require other shared libraries to be resident before they can resolve their symbol tables.

This extension is a single .c file which should compile cleanly on Posix or Windows systems. It's been tested on Linux, and MS-Windows 95 with VC++ 5.0.
