hi, i have downloaded open sees, actually i don't have any experience in programming.
the installation and running of open sees and tcl is perfect in my pc, but please could you tell how can i write file with the extension .tcl or where do i write the programs
i mean i don't want to work every time in the system symbol cmd
once i did programs on c++ with an application that showed me the errors and compilated the program
or should i use the memo pad of windows
please help i don't know what to do, the information is so confusing to me

For Windows a decent program for tcl editing is Notepad++ (https://notepad-plus-plus.org/). It's almost certainly not as sophisticated as the application you used for C++, but it does have syntax highlighting that will help you interpret your code better or see where you made mistakes.

Please check http://opensees.berkeley.edu/OpenSees/user/download.php for downloading OpenSees and installing tcl.

You can find many tcl file examples in
