That's on RHEL-7. I know that you want Tcl at least 8.6, but couldn't I ask for the mercy (and backport)?

I can have a look and see what I can do - I'm not sure exactly what the differences are, binary decode hex should be relatively easy to work around, but there might be other issues.

I have meanwhile in desperation start to rewrite the script to Python, but boy is Tcl hard to read!

Ok, you're obviously free to do so. Let me know if I can help you with anything. Tcl is actually kind of a cool language (from a linguistics perspective) once you get to know it :)

I said in desperation. I would certainly prefer to be lazy and have it working without doing any work. The point was that I just cannot maintain a code in Tcl, so rewrite to Python seemed like more accessible option.
