In-Reply-To: <9603071836.AA06351@halloran-eldar.lcs.mit.edu> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi all of you there: Sorry for this junk mail. This subject does not releate to freebsd too much, but I consider most people on this list are quite knowledgeable, actually this is one reason I switch from Linux to FreeBSD:-). So please execuse me if this mail does not make any sense to you. :-) The problem is releated to sd(session directory? for MBone). We want to implement an easy way for users to create a new session. They can fill-in a form on WEB, tell us the desired time and media(video/audio), then the underlying script will call sd up, at the appropriate time, and more importantly, with the appropriate parameters, like the starting/ending time, title, description, etc. So we are wondering is it possible to write this script in tcl/tk/expect? We really appreciate any info/help, as well as any book tips. We thank you so much for your attention and really sorry for making so much noise on the net:-) Best wishes to all of you! Oh, before I forget the machine we are using is a Pentium 90 powered by FreeBSD 2.0.5, a great OS. Just one more thing, personally I still think FreeBSD is slower than linux, on some aspects. But overall I consider FreeBSD better, much better if the machine is not standalone. Oh, please ignore this if you don't like 8-) Regards ----------------------- Gong Wei eng30219@nus.sg
