The self installing archive simplifies the installation of SIMPL and the SIMPL-Tcl/Tk extension into a single install script. This installation will be done in /tmp and will allow you to run all the code associated with the course as a temporary demo. If you are satisfied and wish to make this SIMPL installation permanent you will be offered that option.
The steps are as follows:
NOTE: If you wish to examine this install script before running it
you can simply edit tclsimpl.sh. The installer script is contained in
the first part up until the line:
__TARBALL_FOLLOWS__
If all your code installed and built correctly using the procedure above you should be able to see a list of tests associated with the course.
From that list of tests (the tsXXXX are the SIMPL-Tcl/Tk unit tests) you can select the first SIMPL-Tcl/Tk unit test
by typing:
ts0001
at the installer script prompt.
If you are successful the test should run.
Have fun. Hope you enjoy SIMPL-Tcl/Tk programming.
