installing BLT 2.4z



At least I think that's the right version, it's
the current one, whatever that is, it's at work,
I'm not... The problem, for reasons to weird to
explain, I have little ability to write to the
C: drive, the sys admins reluctantly allowed MS
Office to write to the C: drive, but they tried
to find ways around that.

I have installed Tcl/Tk 8.4 to the D: drive
successfully. But when I try to install to install
BLT, I got a "Corrupt installation" error and the
install program quit. I'm willing to bet that it
didn't look anyplace but the C: drive. I have
downloaded and untarred/gzipped the tar file from
sourceforge. I looked through the rest of the
packages included with Tcl/Tk from ActiveState and
I'm trying to decipher some of the files, such as
the tap file. The install script looks like it
uses a routine called tclapp -scan to generate that
file.

I figured instead of trying to build BLT, maybe I
could extract the files from the executable file.
That might give me the guts of what is needed (the
DLL). Does anyone have any other words of wisdom
that I can try in the AM (or PM)?
