Description:
The most recent major release of the Tcl/Tk language and graphical-user-interface toolkit, Tcl/Tk 9.0 , has been released, a mere 27 years after the 8,0 major release in 1997. There have been plenty of
releases in the interim, though, as can be seen in the Tcl chronology . The 9.0 release brings 64-bit data values, better Unicode support, the ability to use zip files as filesystems, a switch to use epoll() or kqueue() where they are available, SVG support in Tk, access to notifications and other desktop-platform services in Tk, and lots more. For more information, see
the release notes for Tcl and Tk that can be downloaded as Markdown files
from the announcement page. (Thanks to Matt Bradley.)
