GWL The following changes the application name on the menu bar in
MacOS X:
if {[string equal $tcl_platform(os) Darwin]} {
if {![catch {package require tclCarbonProcesses}] &&
[llength [info commands ::carbon::setProcessName]]} {
carbon::setProcessName [carbon::getCurrentProcess] {MyApp}
}
}DAS note that
[carbon::setProcessName] is only available starting with
tclCarbonProcesses 1.1, and that it uses undocumented SPI that may break in future versions of
MacOS X. It also will not do everything you want (e.g. it does not change the application name in the Dock), a better way to change the application name is to package your script as a
MacOS X application bundle and set the correct name in its
Info.plist file.
See also the example on
Ffidl for a way to access the
setProcessName functionality without
tclCarbonProcesses.
