This is a collection of tcl/tk games that I 'waste' time with occasionally.

I downloaded most/all of them from http://wiki.tcl.tk/898

BTW: You don't need any installers for these games just download, change permissions and run. I created this package so I can add them to my cd when using unleashed.

Nice simple games are often the most addictive . . .

For those new to this sort of thing - this download is double archived . . .

* Download file
* Open File Managers MtoolsFM
* Locate file and select it and then use g unzip (I thought this was something called "gun zip" . . .) gunzip is the opposite of gzip - that decompresses the tar file in this case
* In the olden days tar (tape archives) were used - tar
tar I believe is not a compressor just makes a file and all its sub directories into one tar file - so select the tar file and untar
* Then locate the files in bin I think it is and run them - do not run - right click on the file and look for permissions - change the permission to runnable

Can all that be done from the command line?
No doubt but not by me - the above (if you have never done it before is a handful - the first few times)
- then you gets it and it is easy . . .

See how we look after our newest Puppys? Smile
