- Alpha now supports auto-loading of tcl procs. In order to use this
- facility, you need to create an index file for each directory that contains
- tcl files and add that directory to the definition of 'auto_path' at the
- end of of ":Tcl:SystemCode:AlphaBits.tcl". This index file must be
- recreated each time you add or delete file or procs within files from these
- directories.
-
- Index files are created by the 'auto_mkindex' proc. 'auto_mkindex' takes
- two arguments, a directory name, and a string pattern (not a regular
- expression, see the documentation of 'string match' from the Tcl help file
- for more details on string patterns) used to define the files from that
- directory that need to be indexed.
-
- For example, if I've added a new file or proc to a file in the UserCode
- directory supplied with this release, I go to the Tcl shell (from the
- File menu), and do the following:
-
- Alpha ƒ> cd
- Alpha ƒ> auto_mkindex :Tcl:Usercode *.tcl
- auto_mkindex :Tcl:Usercode *.tcl
- Alpha ƒ>
