One source for software mentioned in the catalog is the various Usenet or comp.lang.tcl article archives - in many cases, the authors posted their programs to the newsgroup. A Contact address with ??? at the end means that I was unable to verify the address. Also, Contacts without addresses or marked as Unknown mean that I had limited to no information about the contact person. The Updated field does not imply the package was updated, but that the catalog entry was updated. Index of questions: XIII.
