Re: [MACTCL] Loading Tk into Panther tclsh

[Jim I. <ji...@ap...>]

Are you using a version of Tk that you built with the X11 libraries?  
You can't mix the Tk that comes with the TclTkAquaBI with X11 code, 
that is not going to work...  OTOH, the X11 version of Tk should behave 
much the same as on any other X11 platform.

Note also, because of the way the you have to start up Carbon, we don't 
support autoloading Tk.  It might be possible to do, I am not sure, but 
it would not be easy...
