For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))

when it execute, it stops in procedure execute: so i

Difficult question without more information!  Suggestion - try printing out the parameters that are passed into the $Programme exec call just before your Tcl script makes the call, and then try to run that programme stand alone; this may give you a clue.

By the way  "Segmentation Violation" is much more often a sign of a problem in a C program than one in a scripting language such as Tcl which should be protecting the user from such problems.

You may also find that testing you underlying problem, first, on its own will help you get to a solution in two easy steps rather than one difficult one where you're trying to debug two things in parallel,
