	I keep pointers to the authority locations of the various Tcl FAQs
of which I am aware at <URL: http://www.purl.org/NET/Tcl-FAQ/ >.
I am also going to attempt to keep a copy of this file up to date on
<URL: ftp://ftp.procplace.com/pub/tcl/sorted/packages-7.6/info/faq/ > in files
named tcl-faq.part0[1-5].  Make sure you pick up the newest ones there.
There are mirrors of the user contribution archive site maintained
elsewhere - for instance, it appears that huji, denet, luth, obspm,
th-darmstadt, sunsite, univie all have some portion of the user contrib
archives available.  Also, I will be posting it on a regular basis to
at least <URL: news:comp.lang.tcl >, <URL: news:news.answers >, and
<URL: news:comp.answers >.

	Many FAQs, including my particular ones, are available on the
archive site <URL: ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news/answers/ >.
The subdirectory and name under which a FAQ is archived appears in the
Archive-name line at the top of the article.
For example, this part of the comp.lang.tcl FAQ is archived as
<URL: ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news/answers/tcl-faq/ >.
There is a Northern European archive for the FAQ at
<URL: ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/usenet/news.answers/comp.lang.tcl/ >
as well as a French location for the FAQ at
<URL: ftp://hplyot.obspm.fr/tcl/ >.  A great WWW site for
these archives can be found at <URL: http://www.faqs.org/ >.

	There is also a mail server from which you can obtain a copy of
the FAQ.  Send an email message to <URL: mailto:mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu > or
<URL: mailto:archive-server@nic.switch.ch > with the word help in the body of
the message to find out how to use it.

	Also, this FAQ is available from within gopher (by looking at
any one of the gopher holes presenting news.answers or FAQ lists), from
WAIS servers (such as the comp.lang.tcl.src), from a number of sites
which have available via ftp archives of news.answers and comp.answers
(use archie to locate one of these sites available around the world),
and probably other resources as well.

	Other news.answers/FAQ archives (which carry some or all of the FAQs
in the <URL: ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/ > archive), sorted by country, are:

	Various Uniform Resource Locator (URL) ids for the
comp.lang.tcl FAQ exist.  My personal copy is found at
<URL: http://www.purl.org/NET/Tcl-FAQ/ >.  The user can use a
WorldWideWeb (WWW) client to access the Tcl FAQ from this point.
Another FAQ page is
<URL: http://www.lib.ox.ac.uk/internet/news/faq/comp.lang.tcl.html >.
Yet another is
<URL: http://www.cs.ruu.nl/wais/html/na-bng/comp.lang.tcl.html >.

	A WWW URL where the FAQ is treated simply as one
long scrollable document (suitable for doing a search against, for
instance) is <URL: http://realsoon.wpi.edu:8080/faqs/tcl.FAQ >
though there are reports that this server is not responding to HTTP
requests.

	A archive of the newsgroup is available from
<URL: ftp://olive.kek.jp/pub/tcl/News/ > where the archive is organized
by collecting each month's worth of postings into its own file.  This
archive has been kept since January 1993.

	There is a Tcl room on Internet Relay Chat (IRC).  Contact
Don Lindsay <URL: mailto:don@metroatlanta.com > for details on the #TCL room.

	The FAQs also can be found in many of the various archives for
<URL: news:comp.lang.tcl > as well as mirrors of the neosoft ftp site.
I must warn you though that in many cases, the copies of the FAQs
found around the internet are woefully out of date.  The PURL points to
the authority location and should be available to all.

	Let me know when you find the FAQ in new and unusual locations
so I can update this resource guide!


------------------------------


From: FAQ General information
Subject: -X- On what sites can I find archives for comp.lang.tcl?

	At <URL: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tcl_announce/ >, the
<URL: news:comp.lang.tcl.announce > postings are archived.  Details
regarding a mailing list of postings to this newsgroup are also
at the WWW site.

	At <URL: http://www.loria.fr/news/fr.comp.lang.tcl-old.html >,
the first few months worth of articles on <URL: news:fr.comp.lang.tcl > are
available, while the current articles are available at
<URL: http://www.loria.fr/news/fr.comp.lang.tcl.html >.
FTP access to individual articles from March through October 1997
are available at <URL: ftp://ftp://ftp.loria.fr/pub/arch-news/comp.lang.tcl/ >.

	One ftp archive of old <URL: news:comp.lang.tcl > articles is available
from <URL: ftp://ftp.canberra.edu.au/pub/motif/pub/comp.lang.tcl/ >.
<URL: mailto:jan@ise.canberra.edu.au > (Jan Newmarch) maintained it.
It contains articles from July 1993 thru December, 1993.

	Another archive is available as <URL: ftp://olive.kek.jp/pub/tcl/News/ >
and is stored as a series of monthly archives.  It is maintained by
<URL: mailto:kusano@maple.kek.jp > (Kazuro Furukawa).  Archives for 1992-1996,
as well as for January thru April 1997 ar available.

Another such site is
<URL: http://hepunx.rl.ac.uk/mlists/comp.lang.tcl/comp.lang.tcl.html >,
which covers from December 1993 through April of 1996 (with what
appears to be various holes in coverage).

	One way to access old <URL: news:comp.lang.tcl > articles is to
get one of the published CD-ROMs.  CD ROM World's 1993 CD-ROM claims to
include 40 meg of articles.  InfoMagic's 1996 Tcl/Tk CD-ROM makes the
same claim.

	More interesting ways to access a portion of the newsgroup are
<URL: comp.lang.tcl">http://ecsdg.lu.se/cgi-bin/wwwnntp?comp.lang.tcl > and a number of
the USENET interactive archive sites.  The first gives you access to a
small number of recent news articles.  The latter includes
<URL: comp.lang.tcl">http://groups.google.com/groups?oi=djq&as_ugroup=comp.lang.tcl >,
<URL: comp.lang.tcl.announce">http://groups.google.com/groups?oi=djq&as_ugroup=comp.lang.tcl.announce >,
and <URL: http://www.reference.com/ > (which provides
a mechanism for sending you email when new postings which match your favorite
search query appear; unfortunately, most of the historical clt access is no
longer available here).
Another site would be
<URL: comp.lang.tcl">http://decaf.talkway.com/cgi-bin/cgi?request=enter&group=comp.lang.tcl >
and
<URL: comp.lang.tcl.announce">http://decaf.talkway.com/cgi-bin/cgi?request=enter&group=comp.lang.tcl.announce >.

	At <URL: http://hornet.mmg.uci.edu/cgi-bin/nph-fwais.pl >, one gets the
opportunity to do WAIS searching against various databases, one of
which appears to be the comp.lang.tcl newsgroup.

	At <URL: http://people.a2000.nl/hkooiman/Oratcl.html#Sherlock > or
<URL: http://people.a2000.nl/hkooiman/Scriptics.hqx > you will find a
MacOS Sherlock plug-in for searching <URL: http://www.tcl.tk/ >.

	A fantastic Internet resource is Tcl-URL, found at
<URL: http://purl.org/thecliff/tcl/url.html >.  This is a weekly summary of
the <URL: news:comp.lang.tcl > highlights.  Other sites with this information
include <URL: http://www.ddj.com/topics/tclurl/ >.

<URL: http://www.supernews.com/default/group.pl?path=Computers%20%26%20The%20Internet%2FProgramming/Tcl > is yet another attempt at providing users access to
<URL: news:comp.lang.tcl > and <URL: news:comp.lang.tcl.announce > via WWW.

	Also see
<URL: http://phaseit.net/claird/news.lists/compnewsgroup_archives.html#tcl >
for a variety of resources.

Andreas Kupries <URL: mailto:andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net > has made compressed archives
of some of 1998 and 1999 postings to comp.lang.tcl available.  See
<URL: http://www.purl.org/NET/akupries/tcltk.html > for links.

Unified Technologies Corp. has announced the UTCorp Free Access News
Server (FANS) -- a public, freely accessible news server which will mirror
select USENET newsgroups.  At the moment, it mirrors comp.lang.tcl
and comp.lang.tcl.announce.  The news server runs using TclNNTPD
<URL: http://www.utcorp.net/opensource/tclnntpd/ >, a newly released,
open-source, TCL-only coded NNTP news server.  To access this server, use
<URL: nntp://mirror.utcorp.net/ >.  See
<URL: http://www.utcorp.net/opensource/freeusenet/ > for more info.

Regardless if you believe in God or not, this is a "must-read" message!!

Throughout history, we can see how we have been strategically conditioned coming to this point where we are on the verge of a cashless society. Did you know that the Bible foretold of this event almost 2,000 years ago?

In the book of Revelation 13:16-18, we read,

"He (the false prophet who deceives many by his miracles--Revelation 19:20) causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666."

Speaking to the last generation, this could only be speaking of a cashless society. Why so? Revelation 13:17 tells us that we cannot buy or sell unless we receive the mark of the beast. If physical money was still in use, we could buy or sell with one another without receiving the mark. This would contradict scripture that states we need the mark to buy or sell!

These verses could not be referring to something purely spiritual as scripture references two physical locations (our right hand or forehead) stating the mark will be on one "OR" the other. If this mark was purely spiritual, it would indicate both places, or one--not one OR the other!

This is where it comes together. It is amazing how accurate the Bible is concerning the implantable RFID microchip. Here are notes from someone named Carl Sanders who worked with a team of engineers to help develop this RFID chip:

"Carl Sanders sat in seventeen New World Order meetings with heads-of-state officials such as Henry Kissinger and Bob Gates of the C.I.A. to discuss plans on how to bring about this one-world system. The government commissioned Carl Sanders to design a microchip for identifying and controlling the peoples of the world—a microchip that could be inserted under the skin with a hypodermic needle (a quick, convenient method that would be gradually accepted by society).

Carl Sanders, with a team of engineers behind him, with U.S. grant monies supplied by tax dollars, took on this project and designed a microchip that is powered by a lithium battery, rechargeable through the temperature changes in our skin. Without the knowledge of the Bible (Brother Sanders was not a Christian at the time), these engineers spent one-and-a-half-million dollars doing research on the best and most convenient place to have the microchip inserted.

Guess what? These researchers found that the forehead and the back of the hand (the two places the Bible says the mark will go) are not just the most convenient places, but are also the only viable places for rapid, consistent temperature changes in the skin to recharge the lithium battery. The microchip is approximately seven millimeters in length, .75 millimeters in diameter, about the size of a grain of rice. It is capable of storing pages upon pages of information about you. All your general history, work history, criminal record, health history, and financial data can be stored on this chip.

Brother Sanders believes that this microchip, which he regretfully helped design, is the “mark” spoken about in Revelation 13:16–18. The original Greek word for “mark” is “charagma,” which means a “scratch or etching.” It is also interesting to note that the number 666 is actually a word in the original Greek. The word is “chi xi stigma,” with the last part, “stigma,” also meaning “to stick or prick.” Carl believes this is referring to a hypodermic needle when they poke into the skin to inject the microchip."

Mr. Sanders asked a doctor what would happen if the lithium contained within the RFID microchip leaked into the body. The doctor replied by saying a (...)

Whether or not you believe in God, read this message!

All throughout time, we can see how we have been carefully conditioned coming to this point where we are on the verge of a cashless society. Did you know that Jesus foretold of this event almost 2,000 years ago?
