[MACTCL] TCLets as stand-alone apps

[<ma...@co...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to use the drag and drop tclet utility to create a 
clickable script 
that will run on any OS8 or OS9 G3 or G4 Mac.  I have used the 
web 
installer to install 8.3.4 on a Mac 9500 for this purpose.

When I use the Wish binary as the Stub, the application created 
complains 
when launched on any other Mac that "Tcl 8.3 is not found".  

When I choose to use the Simple TK (PPC) binary as the Wish 
stub to 
use, I get an "Application initialization failed; BGerror resource 
or suitable 
bgerror file not found" error when attempting to launch the newly 
created 
script on another mac.  

So...is the "Simple TK (PPC) binary" the statically linked binary 
that I 
should be using to create clickable scripts that can run on 
Macintoshes 
with no TCL installed?  Should I be using another binary file 
included in the 
distribution to link to? It is very confusing, as no where in the 
Macintosh 
installer does it seem to list the location or actual name of the 
statically 
linked Wish, although it does imply that the static versions of 
Wish will be 
created via the Web installer.  By their size, the "Simple" TK's 
seem to be 
the correct ones, although the "simple" in their name makes me 
wonder if 
they are scaled down versions, hence the missing bgerror 
resource 
message I'm getting.  Any help offered will be greatly 
appreciated!

Thanks,

-Daniel Barrett
