I=E2=80=99m guessing Kevin Walzer has chimed in somehow=E2=80=94I =
don=E2=80=99t think his reply made it to the mailing list. Nor did my =
earlier one, so I=E2=80=99ve tried sending that again.

Since I don=E2=80=99t already how to change the icon, I was indeed about =
to suggest his website where he might have some resources for packaging =
and customizing Tcl/Tk programs for Mac (I have not yet had the need to =
try them though): https://www.codebykevin.com/tutorial.html =
<https://www.codebykevin.com/tutorial.html>

It also used to be that the name of the program in the menu bar (the =
bold menu next to the Apple =EF=A3=BF menu) was based on the name of the =
binary that is using Tcl (so in our case usually just `perl`), and that =
might require supplying a custom-named perl binary. But I think =
Kevin=E2=80=99s wish tutorial might cover changing that as well.=20=
