Because One-Click-Ruby-Installer has standard Tcl/Tk libraries only. tkextlib/* are files to support Tcl/Tk extensions (iwidgets/* requires the IWidgets extention). Probably, it is the easiest way to install a ActiveTcl binary package which can be downloaded from the ftp site of ActiveState (please see "Support&Resources" at http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActiveTcl/). # Maybe, delete Tcl/Tk libraries included the Ruby-Installer. However, you must get the ActiveTcl8.3.x (Not the latest version). TclTkLib::COMPILE_INFO of tcltklib on Ruby-Installer is --------------------------------------------------------------------- "tcltklib 2004-12-23 :: Ruby1.8.2 (2004-12-25) with pthread :: Tcl8.3.2(without stub)/Tk8.3.2(without stub) with tcl_threads" --------------------------------------------------------------------- It shows the tcltklib works with Tcl/Tk8.3 only. If want to use ActiveTcl8.4.x or 8.5.x, please read [ruby-talk:120774]. Although the tcltklib binary described at there is old, maybe work with latest Ruby-Installer. -- Hidetoshi NAGAI (nagai@ai.kyutech.ac.jp)
