Applied to HEAD (causing the package version to be bumped to 1.3). Leaving open in case you want to backport. NB: still needs testing on Windows; I've added some syntactic tests, but they could be wrong... dkf added on 2010-03-18 18:04:19: This TIP is on the track for 8.6, so raising the visibility of the patch damonc added on 2010-03-09 12:27:15: File Added - 365918: windows-32-and-64-bit-registry.patch damonc added on 2010-03-09 12:26:57: File Deleted - 365792: damonc added on 2010-03-08 08:57:00: Updated patch that puts -32bit and -64bit as the first optional argument of the registry command. This will allow further compatibility for developers by allowing them to do things like:
interp alias {} registry32 {} registry -32bit
interp alias {} registry64 {} registry -64bit
