Notes on the Tcl Library

tcl3270 uses the tclsh command to determine the version of the Tcl library to use. When you run the configure script, make sure that your $PATH points to the version of tclsh that corresponds to the version of the Tcl library you want tcl3270 to use.

tcl3270-specific configure Options

--with-tcl=version Use a specific version of the Tcl library. The default is 8.4.
