Scotty does not have any mechanism like this. It will be fixed in the
next patch. Scotty will honour the environment variable SCOTTY_LIBRARY
which will be used to initialize set the Tcl variable scotty_library.
(Note that I will change the name from scotty_lib to scotty_library to
follow Tcl naming conventions.)
