As a workaround for missing content-repository functionality, copy a provided file into the directory for tcl files:
- cp /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/note-procs.tcl /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/packages/myfirstpackage/tcl/To make this file take effect, go to the APM and choose "Reload changed" for "MyFirstPackage".
Our package will have two visible pages. The first shows a list of all objects; the second shows a single object in view or edit mode, and can also be used to add an object. The index page will display the list, but since we might reuse the list later, we'll put it in a seperate file and include it on the index page.

Each user-visible page in your package has, typically, three parts. The tcl file holds the procedural logic for the page, including TCL and database-independent SQL code, and does things like @@ -22,29 +23,29 @@ set page_title [ad_conn instance_name] set context [list]
