Are you using the development snapshot which is already ported to NT?
Or are you using an older scotty version? You should at least mention
which version of scotty you are talking about if you want to get help.

The symbol _Tcl_DeleteFileHandler could not be resolved.

And this is the explanation.

Use the development snapshot or read in the archive of this mailing
list how to work around this problem.
