  • ANNOUNCE: BLE for Tcl on Mac OSX and iOS

    From decentespresso@gmail.com@user21123@newsgrouper.org.invalid to comp.lang.tcl on Sat Jul 11 16:57:13 2026
    From Newsgroup: comp.lang.tcl


    This is a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) binding that gives Tcl a
    single, portable "ble" command reaching from the Mac OSX desktop to the iPhone/iPad wired into the Tcl event loop. On macOS and iOS it drives Apple's CoreBluetooth, and it is API-compatible with AndroWish's built-in "ble"
    command -- so the same Tcl script talks to Bluetooth devices on macOS,
    iOS *and* Android without change.
