It appears that you have a version of tclkit that is compiled for X11 support rather than aqua support. That means your code won't run on just any OSX box, it will require that the user has X11 installed and running. I'm guessing that's not what you want.

Finally, if you want to take a look at an existing mac app that uses starkits, check out Will Duquette's notebook app which integrates nicely with the mac:

You could, for example, keep the tcl/starkit stuff from his application then replace the notebook-specific code with your code.
