Sounds good, as long as there is some easy and well explained way to install
these packages. Some time ago I asked for one and no-one responed. I also
didn't find anything interresting about it on wiki.

In particular - it's very good how much libraries/packages are available in
ActiveTcl for Windows. But how - in most easy way - to install these libraries
on UNIX?

The problem is that most of the scripts I use must use such capabilities, as
they are accessible in the global Tcl's installation on server. I don't know
how our admins installed it, but despite that "package names" returns, for
example, Itcl, the "package require Itcl" returns an error message, because it
didn't find .so (but .a instead). Itcl would be very useful for me, but until
it is available, I cannot use any of its capabilities. The same concerns TclX.

I don't expected something like CPAN. I would expect only some package
installer, which doesn't require to run configures, makes, installs and so on
(and bother about compiler errors, which are nothing unusual in case of many
packages).
