I suggest you go to the official Tcl project pages and read up on Tcl
8.4 and, especially "TEA", the Tcl Extension Architecture. There will
never again be an Incr Tcl shell: it's not needed.
To get an Itcl shell, you must configure the build with
"--enable-shared" (on unix only -- cygwin always builds this way). When
you start tclsh, give it the command "package require Itcl". This will
load the Itcl extension. POOF! You know have an itclsh.exe. Do the same
with wish, and you have an itkwish.exe.
