John Ousterhout of the University of California, Berkeley, designed it. It is a combination of a scripting language and its own interpreter that gets embedded to the application, we develop with it. Tcl was developed initially for Unix. It was then ported to Windows, DOS, OS/2, and Mac OSX. Tcl is much similar to other unix shell languages like Bourne Shell (Sh), the C Shell (csh), the Korn Shell (sh), and Perl. It aims at providing ability for programs to interact with other programs and also for acting as an embeddable interpreter. Even though, the original aim was to enable programs to interact, you can find full-fledged applications written in Tcl/Tk. Features of Tcl The features of Tcl are as follows − ∑ Reduced development time. ∑ Powerful and simple user interface kit with integration of TK. ∑ Write once, run anywhere. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and almost on every Unix platform. ∑ Quite easy to get started for experienced programmers; since, the language is so simple that they can learn Tcl in a few hours or days. ∑ You can easily extend existing applications with Tcl.

  • Identity Standards Identity
    Identity Standards Identity PRIMARY SIGNATURE The GPS LifePlan primary signature is custom-gen- erated artwork. Therefore, please reproduce it using only the approved electronic fi les. Any substitution will dilute its impact. The signature may be applied in this format when referencing the overall GPS LifePlan. SECONDARY SYMBOL In conjuction with the primary signature, the symbol can be used to show the colors associated with the GPS LifePlan. Use of this symbol should be used sparingly and only as a supporting element. Specifi c examples include: On t-shirt back, with primary signature on front. Used on pins or buttons during an overall marketing effort, handed out with other branded materials that use the primary signature. Used on the back of a business card, closely cropped to create an abstract pattern. Identity SUB-PLAN SIGNATURES When referencing a specifi c plan, these corresponding signatures should be used at all times. Some good examples as to where these would be used would be a poster or fl yer where only one plan is referenced, or for class/workshop materials for a specifi c sub-plan. On the occasion where you will be talking about multiple subplans, see the following page. THE GPS FORMULA This graphic was created to tell the story behind the GPS LifePlan brand, and can be used wherever an introduction needs to be made. Identity SUB-PLAN LABELS When referencing multiple sub-plans or when space is limited, the following sub-plan labels should be used. This is to avoid becoming too redundant with the primary signature as well provide the sub-plans the ability to be more legible in smaller sized areas.

  • An Electronic Chalkboard for Classroom and Distance Teaching
    An Electronic Chalkboard for Classroom and Distance Teaching Dissertation zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines Doktors der Naturwissenschaften im Fachbereich Mathematik und Informatik der Freien Universit¨at Berlin vorgelegt von Lars Knipping aus Itzehoe 14. Februar 2005 ii Gutachter: Prof. Dr. Ra´ulRojas Prof. Dr. Ruedi Seiler Preface Quis leget haec? Persius, Satires, 1:2 Many people have contributed to the development of the system being de- scribed in this thesis. The project was conceived by Prof. Dr. Ra´ulRojas, who accompanied its development and provided many ideas. The first prototype of the board software was written by Wolf-Ulrich Raffel. The entire audio part is authored by Gerald Friedland, on the basis of the WWR system by Gerald Friedland and Tobias Lasser and its successor WWR2 by Gerald Friedland and Bernhard Fr¨otschl. Gerald Friedland also designed the multimedia editor called Exymen and the video part of the E-Chalk system. Kristian Jantz assisted in the video software development. He implemented the SID plug-in for Exymen, the Maple connection for the board, and a number of tools: one for converting lecture recordings to AVI and QuickTime movies, another for generating board snapshots, one for updating the audio format, and a tool for restoring damaged recordings. Ernesto Tapia developed the mathematical handwriting recognition inte- grated in the board component. Mary Ann Brennan wrote the first version of the PDF generator and the JMF audio plug-in for Exymen. Stephan Lehmann implemented the program to convert E-Chalk recordings to Windows ASF files. Dr. Peter R¨ußman added capabilities for function definition and function plot- ting for the small built-in computer algebra system.
