This is not trivial. A Tcl script is currently associated with exactly
one Tkined window. If you want to do things across multiple Tkined
windows, you need to setup a communication path between several
scripts. You can use the `ined send' command for this purpose or you
can realize your own protocol. You can also hack the Tkined C sources
to implement more primitives as needed.
