Welcome to TCLTKGRASS 5. March 1999
This text describes how to install TCLTKGRASS, if
you have already installed the TCL/TK-libraries 8.0 on
your system. For installing these libraries, please
read INST_tcl_libs.txt
Requirements:
- GRASS 4.x (4.1 as well as 4.2.1)
- GRASS 5.x
- Tcl/Tk 8.0 libraries for your unix platforms

A. Check your existing TCL-TK libraries
The "wish" program must be available (in path):
which wish8.0
The file wish8.0 may be in in the
either /usr/local/bin or /usr/X11/bin etc.
The name must be: wish8.0 (wish4.2 cannot be used! It is too old!)
B. Install TCLTKGRASS
- TCLTKGRASS can be unpacked anywhere, for example:
cd /usr/local/grass42/
gunzip < tcltkgrass_2.6.tar.gz | tar xvf -
That will create the directory "tcltkgrass".
If one was already there, please remove it before.
