Howver, when I try (ctk::tk-test), I get "Unable to load foreign library: libtcl.so". This file doesn't seem to belong to any debian package.
You can work around this by creating a symlink
eg. first find which version of tcl is installed $ ls /usr/lib/libtcl* /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so.0
then as root create a symlink $ ln -s /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so.0 /usr/lib/libtcl.so
The proper solution is for the shared library loader to find the file itself, I'm working on a fix this.
Thanks for all the help. After dealing with the distractions of life and finally getting round to trying out the advice above, I can (require :celtk) without any errors. Now though, when I try to run the test program (ctk:ltktest), I get following backtrace
Backtrace: 0: (SB-KERNEL::UNDEFINED-ALIEN-FUNCTION-ERROR) 1: ("foreign function: call_into_lisp") 2: ("foreign function: funcall0") 3: ("foreign function: undefined_alien_function") 4: (TOGL-CREATE-FUNC #.(SB-SYS:INT-SAP #X05000F78)) 5: (TK-TOGL-INIT #.(SB-SYS:INT-SAP #X0810DCD8)) 6: (RUN-WINDOW CELTK-USER::LTKTEST-CELLS-INSIDE T)
I can load togl.lisp so I think it can find the libraries ok but it can't seem to find togl-create-func. Any idea why? I feel like I'm pretty close to seeing those gears :-)
Sorry if this has been covered, but: Togl does not come with Tc/Tk (or did not when I installed). Go here if this might be your problem: http://togl.sourceforge.net/ Pretty amazing install/build instructions, IIRC. The acid test on many questions you might have is: Can you do it from wish? ie, run wish.exe and try XXXX manually or by using a Tcl script provided by the folks offering XXXX. When /that/ works you can focus debugging on Celtk. (I am not discouraging questions, just sharing with you my own attack sequence on some problems; it is really nice being able to hop over to wish to do a sanity check before staring longer at a Celtk problem). kt
