Resources - How to Get Help
Mailing Lists
The Rivet mailing list is the first place you should turn for
help. If you haven't found the solution to your problem in the documentation
or you have a question, idea, or comment about the Rivet code itself send email to
rivet-dev@tcl.apache.org. To subscribe to the list, post email to
rivet-dev-subscribe@tcl.apache.org.
The mailing list archives are available at
Newsgroup
The newsgroup is a good
place to ask about Tcl questions in general. Rivet developers
also follow the newsgroup, but it's best to ask Rivet-specific
questions on the Rivet list.
Web Sites
There are several web sites that cover Apache and Tcl
extensively.
is the home for the
Apache Tcl project. Go there for the latest versions of
our software (if you aren't reading these pages off of the
site!).
is the first
place to go for questions about the Apache web server.
is the canonical site
for Tcl information.
is the Tcl'ers Wiki, a
free-form place to search for answers and ask for help.
Bug Tracking System
Apache Rivet uses the Apache Bug Tracking system at . Here,
you can report problems, or check and see if existing issues
are already known and being dealt with.
IRC
Occasionally, someone from the Rivet team is on IRC at
irc.freenode.net, channel #tcl.
Editing Rivet Template Files
Rivet makes available code for two popular editors,
emacs and
vim to facilitate the editing of
Rivet template files. The key concept is that the editor is
aware of the <? and ?> tags and switches back and forth
between Tcl and HTML modes as the cursor moves. These files,
two-mode-mode.el and
rvt.vim are available in the
contrib/ directory.
