I am getting this question quite frequently now. That's why I am
making a snapshot available. But note: This is really a snapshot in
the sense that I don't expect it to run reliable (if it runs at all).

Note, there might be problems when you load old maps because I started
to rename the bitmap files from *.bm to *.xbm. The simplest way is to
fix your *.tki files with you favorite editor.

And since the position of the group icon is no longer bound to the
position of its members, it is very likely that groups are misplaced
when you load old Tkined files.

You will find the sources based on Tk4.0b3 and Tcl7.4b3 on

ftp://ftp.ibr.cs.tu-bs.de/pub/local/tkined/devel/tkined-1.3.1.tar.gz
