Debian Linux tkined newbie woes

Hi,

I have installed the Debian packages of tkined and scotty: scotty works
fine but tkined is not co-operating (or I am misunderstanding something).

When I run tkined from an xterm nothing happens, save for a complaint
about a non-existent font. By nothing happens, I mean nothing - even if I
go away for five minutes. Anyone know if a non-existent font could do this?

BTW, other X-clients do work fine and scotty/wish/tclsh appear to be ok too.

>From the documentation, I figure that invoking tkined with no arguments
should get me a blank canvas, with various pull-down menus for drawing
etc. Correct, or have I misunderstood something?

Any hints, pointers or suggestions on hwo to diagnose this will be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks in anticipation,

Neale.
