The Hydra positioner GUI consists of an extended TCL/TK interpreter plus a set of TCL/TK scripts that build the functionality required by the application. The extended TCL/TK interpreter lives at sub directory Hydra/src/main. Support is provided for compiling the interpreter under Linux, SunOs and Solaris. The TCL/TK scripts live at sub directory Hydra/lib/tclhydra.
