[R] Using Tcl/Tk on Windows

[Eric Lecoutre]

Hello,

I would like to try Tcl/Tk library on Windows.
I installed ActiveTCL 8.3.4.3 and add the environment variable TCL_LIBRARY 
linking to the directory of installation.

When I load the Tcl/Tk package, I have the following error:

+--------------------------------------------------------------+
Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) :
         Can't find a usable init.tcl in the following directories:
     {d:\TCL}

This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly.
Error in library(pkg, character.only = TRUE) :
         .First.lib failed
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
Effectlively, there is no such file in the directory where I installed 
ActiveTCL 8.3.

I am working on Windows 2000, with R 1.5 and ActiveTCL 8.3.

Is there something I missed?

(note: I first downloaded ActiveTCL 8.4 beta, which would not work as the 
searched DLL is called tk83.dll and the one with this distribution is tk84.dll)
