I don't know about vtcl, but do now that you can source in tcl code within R. In
the tkGUI.R code you will find this example:

 tcl("source", file.path(.Library, "tcltk", "exec", "console.tcl"))

This finds the path of the file console.tcl -- which contains tcl code -- and
'sources' it in. Likely the same construct could be useful for you. I've used it
with gWidgetstcltk.
