# this utility must be used to create the package index file for a package that
# uses stooop.
# it differs from the tcl pkg_mkIndex procedure in the way it sources files.
# since base classes can usually be found in files separate from the derived
# class source file, sourcing each file in a different interpreter (as is done
# in the pkg_mkIndex procedure) results in an error for stooop that catches the
# fact that the base class is not defined. the solution is to use a single
# interpreter which will source the class files in order (base classes first at
# the user's responsibility). since stooop is loaded in that single interpreter,
# inheritance problems and others are automatically caught in the process.
# the generated package index file is fully compatible with the tcl generated
# ones.
# the stooop library makes sure that base classes source files are automatically
# sourced when a derived class is defined (see the stooop.tcl source file for
# more information).
# if your software requires one or more packages, you may force their loading
# by using the -p arguments. each package version number is optionally appended
# to the package name and follows the same rules as the Tcl package require
# command
# example: $ tclsh -p switched.1 -p scwoop foo bar.tcl barfoo.tcl foobar.tcl ...
