RE: Tclkit 8.5a4 + registry

Hi Larry,

In the "plain" ActiveTcl tclsh the registry command is not present after
startup.
In the "plain" ActiveTcl wish the registry command is already present, which
may depend on tkCon or other startup packages needing the registry command.

In the tclkit 8.5a4 and in the tclkitsh 8.5a4 the registry command is also
not present after startup.

But I had recently this "package require ..." error, even with the package
dde.

Currently (right after startup) it is no problem to require the packages
registry (1.1.5) and dde (1.3.1).

Best regards,

Martin Lemburg
