Hello John,

I considered doing this, but decided it would be a good idea to start with a clean slate. Wasn't 100% sure though, that's why I explicitly mentioned it.

If the general opinion is that history from SVN should be preserved, then I'll do that of course. So what do you folks think?

Best wishes,
-Heinz

If it's not too hard, you might want to extract your changes from your new
git repo, drop the repo, use reposurgeon (a general VCS converter and
editor), and reapply your changes.  That way the history is preserved and
you don't need multiple repos.

Hello,

As promised, I've ported the pstk egg to Chicken 5, and would like to
take over as maintainer.

https://github.com/utz82/pstk
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/utz82/pstk/master/pstk.release-info

License has been reverted to BSD 2-clause, as the main source actually
never was in the public domain.

I threw out the SVN backlog when importing to git, so maybe the C4 egg
should continue to use the old SVN repository instead. Otherwise pstk
should replace Chicken/Tk as the "maintained" Tk egg at this point. I do
plan on maintaining both 4 and 5 versions, in any case.

Haven't done any changes to the code for now, other than C5
compatibility tweaks, and setting default tclsh to tclsh8.6. I'm amazed
that this decade-old code works on C5 pretty much out of the box.

Best wishes,
-Heinz
