Unfortunately Tix isn't included ActiveTcl on Mac OS X. Jeff Hobbs, Tcl
dude here at ActiveState, spent a little time on getting Tix building on
OS X.

Jeff recommended other widgets that are available in ActiveTcl over what
Tix provides and invited you to ask on news:comp.lang.tcl or the
ActiveTcl list as to good alternatives to what he is using (specifying
use of Tkinter).
