An implementation of SafeTcl is available from
ftp://ftp.fv.com/pub/code/other

Other directories under /pub/code give examples of using SafeTcl for
extending web servers. In addition, http://www.infohaus.com/ is running
about 98% SafeTcl code (besides the httpd itself).

The other choice is to send mail to nsb+faq@nsb.fv.com (I think that's
right) to get Nathaniel's latest FAQ, wherein it will list places to get
SafeTcl and all. --Darren
