[vtk-developers] VTK and Tcl83

[David Gobbi]

Thanks, Ken.  This cmake stuff sure is nice.

I just noticed that my tk8.3 binary distro on Windows has an
'xlib' directory which contains tkInt.h and friends.  I don't know
if this is true of other tk8.3 distros for Win32, but it is
another possible place to get the headers from.
(though I think that including them with the VTK source is safest in
any case)
