Thank you. I was not quite conscious about the fact that the working 
directory in a starkit is just the one from which the starkit is called. 
The finder on a Mac is starting his search for the applications from the 
root directory.

So the best solution is not to call "pwd" but to set the absolute path 
directly, for example:

set dir "~/Documents"
set filename [tk_getopenfile -initialdir $dir]

This is working.
