That certainly works now in plplot/tmp.

But the installed version still does not work.

Here is the message.

application-specific initialization failed: Can't find a usable
tcl/plplot.tcl in the following directories:
    /usr/plplot5.1/library

I have looked at your changes to tclAPI.h, and I believe they should be very
close to working for the installed version (in fact I got something similar
to this to work on install simply by modifying initScript, but you beat me
to check-in, and your solution is more sophisticated in that it is meant to
work both on windows and linux).

The only question I have is your change to the treatment of libDir.  Is that
new treatment somehow limiting the search to just the one directory above
for the installed version?  If you go back to the old treatment, I think
that the installed version will work on Linux (but of course that might
blast the success you now have with plplot/tmp so I leave it to you to
figure this out in a general way).
