Go to http://freewrap.sourceforge.net/ and read a little about freeWrap.

Then download freeWrapPLUS at
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/freewrap/freewrapPLUS61.zip?download

The freeWrapPLUS.exe file contained within this distribution can be used
(after renaming it to another file name) as a single-file version of TCL/TK
with the BLT extension. Installation simply consists of copying the file to
any location. This is probably the easiest way of installing TCL/TK with
BLT you will find.
