The code saved out by vTcl will be whatever you make it. If you
use Itcl in your code, they'll need Itcl to run the program. Just the
same as if you used the BLT package or some other widget package. Itcl
will only be needed within the Tcl interpreter that you use to load
vTcl itself.
Information pertaining to the project will be stored in a separate
project file or in the same file, as you see fit, and will need Itcl
when the project is sourced back in.

I do all my editing with vi. 0-] The new code will be just as
readable as the other versions. The vTcl proc names will just be a
little different

The code to generate these is still there, but it's a lot smarter.
When a project is saved, if you haven't used any images, the code to
display them is not saved. The same goes for fonts. If you never used
a font or image, all that code is left out of the saved project.
This is all 1.5 I'm referring to. I didn't like 1.2 much. 0-] That's
why I started adding modifications.

Thank you for using it. 0-]
