Great, thanks. It's nice to see new features coming in, even minor 
ones such as this one.

At the same time I was wondering. There are some open annoying bugs 
around tk_get*file Tk commands, and I have even provided a patch for 
one of them almost one year ago (see bug report #1614032).

Since submission I have never heard again from this topic. What could 
be the stalling cause? Is the patch wrong perhaps? Should I do 
something special?

I can't apply the patch myself to the source tree, of course, so how 
can I have it validated by the TCT?

Thanks a lot for your work,
Francois
