Shown after installing
The websh _executable_ is deliberately not installed by this port.
To load websh functionality into regular Tcl-scripts, simply use:

	package require websh


For a ready to use example on configuring the module, see:

	/usr/local/share/examples/websh/httpd.conf

The file can be simply copied into the

	/usr/local/etc/apache24/Includes/

under more recent Apache versions.

Be sure to create /usr/local/etc/websh.conf -- most likely, you'll
simply copy the installed /usr/local/etc/websh.conf.dist over.

Fix up the makefile post-configure to avoid useless PACKAGE_-definitions, which may conflict with the (equally useless) Apache ones.

Insist on TCL-8.4 -- using 8.5 causes self-test failures
including seg-faults... These are being investigated.

Mikhail Teterin (mi) · 3.6.0b4
Webshell -- a TCL module for Apache. Appears to be the most advanced and the best supported such module of the several listed at

http://tcl.apache.org/

Works with both Apache-1.3.x and 2.x and has an interesting development
paradigm.
