Summary: request for -nogui option in dsp_manager

Created: 2011–01–06 09:53

Status: Released

Category: Request

From: frankie

Version: 2.1

Released_In: 2.2

Description:

Previously, in issue Issues.00271 there was a request to allow the manager executable to run without any X environment (such as a server at runlevel 3). This was accomplished with a -notcltk option to close that issue (see link above).

However, recently there has been interest in using tcl scripts in the manager without tk. This is a request for a new option, possible called "-nogui" which would disable tk but not tcl, allowing non-visual tcl scripts to still execute as well as make other plugins and scripts aware that we are running in a non-visual environment.

We would also need a "dsp." tcl command to query the current setting to tcl scripts could be smart about what mode the manager is in.

brad January 6, 2010, at 10:03 AM: This has been implemented as "-notk"

The tcl command "dsp.info interp" will return "tcl" if running without tk and "tcltk" if running with it.
