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 Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own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))

4208Tcl + Tk (Wish) - an introduction and revision example
Whenever I teach Tcl with Tk, I'm delighted to be reminded how easy it is to put together a graphic user interface (GUI) with Tcl. They may not be the world's prettiest, but they're quick, straightforward and functional. And so it was on the final day of our Tcl Programming course last week, when I did ...

In Tcl, both Curley braces and double quotes can be used to hold a block of program or data together as a single unit / parameter ... but there are differences ... a) Curley braces can stretch over a number of lines, with new lines within the block being simply a part of the block.
