Re: Elaboration on Difficulties



    I find myself wishing I had an easy-to-use binary package I could
    just install. ...

Hmm ... my Debian testing distribution has both tcl 8.3 and tcl 8.4.
The information on the binary packages says that both are installed: 

    # apt-get install tcl8.3 -s
    tcl8.3 is already the newest version.

    # apt-get install tcl8.4 -s
    tcl8.4 is already the newest version.

and that `tcl' is symbolically linked to tcl 8.3

    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Mar 23  2006 tcl -> /usr/bin/tcl8.3

The Debian documentation says that tcl 8.3 does not support threads
but that tcl 8.4 does.
