Tcl distributions with “Install Notes” can be found through the Tcl Developer Xchange web site http://tcl.activestate.com. We have had good results on Windows with the ActiveTcl distributions. Cautious users may wish to skip the beta distribution, identified by a ‘b’ in the name, and get the latest stable version. ActiveTcl also includes Tk. IRIX users might need to get the source code distributions of Tcl and Tk and compile them. When I checked on the SGI Freeware web site http://freeware.sgi.com/, on February 13, 2002, the newest binary distributions of Tcl and Tk were version 8.0.4, compiled in 1999. Some of the NIST Web Metrics tools require version 8.2 or higher.
