The most simple example would go like so:

% source resource:/tcl/lang/library/parray.tcl

This uses the Java API to load a resource named 
"/tcl/lang/library/parray.tcl"

This is loaded from jacl.jar via the system classloader:

$ jar -tvf jacl.jar | grep parray

To add your own scripts that use source, just jar up your .tcl files and 
place the jar on the CLASSPATH.
