- This is definitely a good idea. I always end up editing the
- configuration stuff that comes with Tcl/Tk to cope with the local
- setup. However I'm concerned about the legal status of this work. Is
- it copylefted? And if so, what is the implication of this (IE if the
- configuration scheme is copylefted, does that mean that that entire
- Tcl/Tk release is?). I ask because I would like this configuration
- scheme to be the default for Tcl, but I don't think this will happen
- if it is copylefted.
