Understood! and thanks for the "TEA" information - I was not aware of
it.

There is only one extension that I need to embed in a wish shell (it's
made by a colleague to display
3D molecules cf http://www.pasteur.fr/~letondal/biok/i3DMol.html).
It's because we need
to create new Tcl commands and run an init function to set up the
OpenGL environment at
startup.
