Re: [MACTCL] Wishkit oddity vs. regular Wish

[Will D. <wi...@wj...>]

John,

I've not seen this, but then I'm still on TclTkAqua 8.4.4.

WRT Notebook, I'd not done anything fancy to enable "package require Tk"
to work in the User Code interpreter (which is a slave interpreter but 
not
a safe interpreter).  What I'd do is put some code on your User Code
page that outputs the tcl_library path and see if it's different than 
in a
bare wish shell.  If it is, you can use the "super" Notebook Command to
acquire the value; see the Notebook docs.
