I just committed a LTk version which has the parameter *max-line-length* to limit the line length in the communication with TCL - perhaps playing around with that value brings any progress.
Unfortunately, that didn't fix it. I tried 100, 200, ..., 500. I am starting to understand my way around this part of the code, and have isolated a consistent failure. LTK says (send-wish "proc senddatastring {s} { global server puts $server \"(:data \\\"[escape $s]\\\")\" flush $server } ") If I add a (read-data) after this, it says LTK::READ-WISH returned (:ERROR "missing close-brace") If the definition is changed to a single line, (send-wish "proc senddatastring {s} {global server; puts $server \"(:data \\\"[escape $s]\\\")\"; flush $server} ") LTK::READ-WISH hangs because there is no error... This appears to be an issue with all multi-line procedure definitions -- but the ones in init-tcl work fine... Still poking around. - Daniel
