Thanks Doug, so I guessed right -- but I think the FAQ could spell it out
without relying on the reader knowing enough Tcl to tease it out of the
system! (I once heard a system developer say "The documentation is in the
code" then a while later when the user said they couldn't find it the
developer said "sorry, what I meant to say was 'the documentation _is_ the
code'" :-) I hope Scotty isn't like this!)

So I mkdir /usr/local/lib/tnm2.1.9/library/site ?
And create init.tcl in it ?

Thanks again --- that would be useful to have in the FAQ!
