- Tcl/Tk version = 8.6.8
- Mac OS version = 10.13.2 (High Sierra)
- Can also be built with threads enabled. I disabled them because I like a simple life.
Tcl
$ ./configure --prefix=/Users/Shared/tcl8.6.8 --disable-framework --disable-threads
$ make
$ make install
Tk
$ ./configure --prefix=/Users/Shared/tcl8.6.8 --disable-framework --disable-threads --enable-aqua=yes
$ make
$ make install
After build and install
- Create softlink to "tcl8.6.8" in installation directory from "tcl" at same location.
- Create useful aliases for
tclsh
and wish
, and maybe add relevant paths to your PATH
and MANPATH
environment variables because you won't be able to modify/replace /usr/bin/wish
and /usr/bin/tclsh
due to Apple's protection mechanism.
