Restart an application

Hello,

I have a tcl/tk application that should exit and restart itself. This is
some kind of "reset" for the program. The application runs on Linux and
Windows. The Linux box has very limited input devices, therefore I must
invoke the restart from my running application itself. After stopping my
application there is no chance for the user to interact with the system any
more - he can reboot only.

Is there a known solution for this problem? I'm searching for a platform
independent solution. If no such solution exists, an "if
{$tcl_plaform(platform) == ..." based solution is fine too.

Thanks,
Rasmus
