| Back to the Future | 2015-10-21 | This release adds full Unicode 8.0 support including Emojis by using 32 bits for the internal representation of Unicode codepoints and up to 4 byte long UTF-8 sequences (potentially incompatible with Tcl versions on other platforms). An initial AndroWish SDK is provided which simplifies packaging of user defined trimmed down APKs (Android packages). The tclepeg package has been added to make JPEG files into thumbnails.

| Peter Pan | 2014-12-29 | This is mainly a bug fix release which improves stability of the 3d canvas widget, fixes "wm attributes -fullscreen" and on-screen keyboard handling, and adds proper support of the "sdltk screensaver" command. SQLite is updated to version 3.8.7.4, and the mentry and tablelist packages to their latest upstream versions. A separately packaged TkChat for Android is available which needs an installed AndroWish on the device. | |
| All things are full of fools | 2014-12-07 | Stultorum plena sunt omnia (Marcus Tullius Cicero). Tcl and Tk are updated to version 8.6.3, SQLite to version 3.8.7.3. The brand new feature: DRH's 3d canvas widget now runs on Android! It uses an OpenGL to OpenGLES 1.1 emulation layer and renders to an off-screen texture which later is copied into the framebuffer and displayed by SDL which on most modern tablets/smartphones uses OpenGLES 2 for this task. YMMV in terms of stability of the 3d canvas depending on the quality of the device vendor's OpenGLES implementation. | |
| The Gunpowder Plot | 2014-11-05 | Remember, remember AndroWish's first anniversary. The root window now can be zoomed and panned with two and three fingers, respectively. SQLite is updated to 3.8.7.1 and threading support is more stable. | |
| The Flintstones | 2014-09-30 | Yabba dabba doo! The most prominent new feature is threading support in the X11 emulation layer allowing "package require Tk" from a Tcl thread. The tclral package is updated to version 0.11.2. | |
| The Great Moon Hoax | 2014-09-16 | Lunar features: Tcl/Tk updated to version 8.6.2. Packages tclxml, snack, tclws, tclsoap, and vu widgets added. New virtual events and commands to deal with GPS/NMEA and tethering information. Drawing/rendering now performed in RGB888 instead of RGB565. | |

| Alice In Wonderland | 2014-07-28 | Initial fossil import. Follow the white rabbit. |
