Hello,
I have gone through some of the TCL scripts. But this seems to be new to me. What is snit.tcl? when is it used and why?

snit.tcl is normal tcl library code. The head of the file shows something like this.

I've checked the versions of TCL that I have installed on my various boxes and I can't find it. So I've never used it.

Sorry, can't help you further with this.

I was speeking to my colegues, they say that script is going to give some object oriented concept.
Whenever we use some new variable, we use to declare as (variable HELLO::LOG ""). I didnt understand this. Similarly snit.tcl will give one more kind of data type where we can say snit::type HELLO::LOG ""). Problem is what is "::" stands for. I know this is space delimiter, which avoids name repitation. But I want to know whether it is going to tell package hierarchy.

How to browse tcl code? I use vim editor to code c and C++. This is first time I am working on tcl.

It's just a text-file (as you probably already have figured out), so you can keep on using vim.

But still it depends on proc present in many different other files. I use ctags to browse c and c++ object oriented programming codes. But how to do same in TCL.
