I finally succeeded in compiling the latest Tcl/Tk version 8.6.18 and several Tcl extensions using my build framework BAWT.
To be able to run the binaries on my Indy and my virtual Indy's using MAME and the Irresponsible Rust IRIX Simulator I decided to use MIPS3 / n32 mode.
The build process involves the following steps:
(read more)Based on the poFti package, I developed an interactive FTI editor. It is part of my tool poApps.
Binary poApps versions for Windows, Linux and macOS can be found on the poApps download page, a binary poApps version for IRIX is available in the SgiTcl Download section.
An introduction to the interactive FTI editor can be found on the poApps documentation page.
poFti is a pure Tcl/Tk package for processing File Type Icons (FTI), which are used by the Silicon Graphics IRIX Interactive Desktop.
It runs on Windows, Linux, macOS and IRIX and needs Tcl/Tk 8.6 or newer.

I am a recently retired software engineer working since 1986 in the domains of 3D computer graphics and simulation.
I worked on nearly all Motorola and MIPS based SGI systems starting with an IRIS 3030 running the Robert Abel software, intensively using Performer on O2 and Onyx systems in the 90's for training simulations and slowly declining SGI usage and replacing it with OpenSceneGraph and NVidia GPU's around 2008.
During that time I collected several SGI workstations to keep them
away from the 
.
On the other hand I have been using Tcl/Tk for nearly 30 years for professional and private usage and am still engaged in the development of several Tcl/Tk extensions.
My goal for this year is to get most of my SGI machines up and running as well as porting the current Tcl/Tk version and extensions to IRIX 6.5.
