[para]

The audience of this document is anyone wishing to either have just a
look at Tcllib's source code, or build the packages, or to extend and
modify them.

[para] For builders and developers we additionally provide

[list_begin enum]
[enum] [term {Tcllib - The Installer's Guide}].
[enum] [term {Tcllib - The Developer's Guide}].
[list_end]

respectively.

[section {Source Location}]

The official repository for Tcllib can be found at
[uri http://core.tcl-lang.org/tcllib]

[section Retrieval]

Assuming that you simply wish to look at the sources, or build a
specific revision, the easiest way of retrieving it is to:

[list_begin enum]
[enum] Log into this site, as "anonymous", using the semi-random password in the captcha.
[enum] Go to the "Timeline".
[enum] Choose the revision you wish to have.
[enum] Follow its link to its detailed information page.
[enum] On that page, choose either the "ZIP" or "Tarball" link to get
a copy of this revision in the format of your choice.
[list_end]

[section {Source Code Management}]

For the curious (or a developer-to-be), the sources are managed by the
[uri http://www.fossil-scm.org {Fossil SCM}].

Binaries for popular platforms can be found directly at its
[uri http://www.fossil-scm.org/download.html {download page}].

[para]

With that tool available the full history can be retrieved via:

[example {
    fossil clone \
	http://core.tcl-lang.org/tcllib \
        tcllib.fossil
}]

followed by

[example {
    mkdir tcllib
    cd tcllib
    fossil open ../tcllib.fossil
}]

to get a checkout of the head of the trunk.
