Tcl/Tk extension access from python under windows

[Mike C. Fletcher]

The default search path for tcl packages from the Python Tcl/Tk is 
Python23\tcl\* so create a directory there with the name of the package, 
and put a pkgInfo.tcl and your dll into the directory.  pkgInfo.tcl 
should look something like:

if {![package vsatisfies [package provide Tcl] 8]} {return}
package ifneeded Togl 1.6.0 \
    [list load [file join $dir Togl.dll] Togl]

You can use the tcl dde1.2 package you'll find there as a template.

HTH,
Mike
