Ann TclCurl 7.16.4 by Andres Garcia
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.tcl/browse_thread/thread/7d6892400dd0e097
I have just released a new version of TclCurl updated for
libcurl 7.16.2, with TclCurl you can download and upload
files using protocols like ftp, ftps, tftp, http, https,
scp, sftp, tftp, ldap, telnet, dict and file.
The main changes since the last version are:
* New configure options:
* newfileperms: Used to set the permissions, defalt 0664,
that will be assigned to newly created files on the
remote server.
* newdirectoryperms: Used to set the permissions, default
0755, that will be assigned to newly created directories
on the remote server.
They can both be used for SFTP, SCP and FILE transfers.
* Changed option: The option to set the Kerberos security
level for FTP is now called 'krblevel', the old name
'krb4level' will be kept for time for compatibility.
* New option for multi handles:
* maxconnects: Sets the maximum amount of simultaneously
open connections that TclCurl may cache. Default is 10.
* Bug fix: Sven Hoexter fixed a couple of errors in the man pages.
Since the last TclCurl, there has been many changes in libcurl which
you can check at:

I am pleased to announce Version 4.8 of the multi-column listbox package
Tablelist. This release is identical to the one included in ActiveTcl 8.4.15.
What is new in Tablelist 4.8?
-----------------------------
This release fixes a few nasty bugs related to the optimized item
insertion, introduced in the previous Tablelist version (thanks to
Harold Campbell, Roger Niva, and Joerg Klingseisen for their bug
reports).
*I thoroughly recommend to all Tablelist 4.7 users to upgrade to
Version 4.8.*
