Hello? The 1980's called, they want their tired old shell tools back !!


Sorry, I added this...  The goal is to create a variable called
TCL_LIB which contains something like tcl8.4g, something suitable for
passing to the linker without the -l and so on.  e.g. for passing to
AC_CHECK_LIB, but there are other uses too, so I'd like to keep it if
possible.

What's the old skool way of doing this?
