From the package man-page: MySQLTcl is a collection of Tcl commands and a Tcl global array that provide access to one or more mysql database servers. MySQLTcl is nothing more than a patched version of a patched version of Hakan Soderstrom's patch of Tom Poindexter's Sybtcl. Most of the documentention has been left as it was when I started to work with this interface (a patch of msqltcl-1.50). However, I have tried to replace appropriate occurrences of msql by MySQL. This port makes use of some of the Tcl-8.x niceties, but more on that front can be done. WWW: http://www.xdobry.de/mysqltcl/
