Doug,

Thanks for your responses so far.

I'm fine with moving the man3 stuff to man3tcl and man3tk.  But I'm still not
sure about moving mann to man1:

Between Tcl and Tk there are 179 of these manpages.  And of these,
28 name-clash with existing section 1 manpages:

break.1 case.1 cd.1 continue.1 error.1 eval.1 exec.1 exit.1 expr.1 file.1
for.1 foreach.1 glob.1 history.1 if.1 join.1 pack.1 proc.1 pwd.1 read.1
return.1 set.1 source.1 split.1 switch.1 time.1 unset.1 while.1

and several of these are just pointers to other pages like shell_builtins.1.
(also how do I tell which if these have already been opensourced).

So that's a  lot of pages to edit and seems a very messy solution.
Is that really the best way to tackle this?
