Yes, we should probably spend time to figure out what options
shouldn't be saved for projects to run on Tcl 8.0.5. Maybe have
an option in the preferences like "8.0.5 compatible" or "8.1.0" ... ?
But besides these extra options, the generated code does
nothing fancy, so it will run on 8.0.5. I just tried a bitmap button
compound that I wrote and a sample app. It worked well under
8.0.5

Well, just because YOU need 8.3.2 to develop the application with vTcl,
does not meant that your program will not run under 8.0.5. I know that
8.0.5 is the standard Tcl shipped with Linux. You just have to remember
when you are writing YOUR code to not use anything that would not work in
8.0.5.
Visual Tcl needs at least 8.3.2 to run, but that doesn't mean that the
same is required to run programs generated by vTcl. If I'm not mistaken,
programs generated by vTcl should still run smoothly under 8.0.5. Just
use 8.3.2 personally for your own development.
Thanks,
Damon Courtney
