You do not need to install the official Tcl/Tk distrib from Scriptics, as 
it is provided with VTK.

BUT, if you are using a special distrib (like Itcl/Itk), or want to install 
the examples and demo provided with the official Tcl/Tk distrib also, 
install the Scriptics distrib BEFORE installing VTK.

Or change the file association : Shit-Right-click on the Tcl script, choose 
"Open With", then locate the wish82.exe or any Tcl shell in the *VTK* bin 
directory (not the Scriptics bin directory).
