The xorriso-tcltk GUI was not starting in current. My initial
troubleshooting search suggested a problem with "wish".
Actually the problem was that installing xorriso-tcltk does not install
xorriso as a runtime dependency.
Thanks for looking into this.

Our Tcl/Tk packages only provide binaries which include version numbers,
there's no package providing /usr/local/bin/wish, and other ports use
patches/sed/.. to set #! lines correctly. That's done for xorriso-tcltk:
$ head -1 /usr/local/bin/xorriso-tcltk
#!/usr/local/bin/wish8.5
tcl->=8.5,<8.6:lang/tcl/8.5
cad/opencascade is dependent on tcl/8.6
Would anyone have objections to upgrading the tcl/tk version to 8.6 in
xorriso-tcltk?
unless there's a special reason for using a different Tcl/Tk version
(i.e. some software requires a newer or older version), the normal
approach in ports is to use the default version specified in
lang/tcl/tcl.port.mk / x11/tk/tk.port.mk. I wonder if we're anywhere
near flipping the default to 8.6 though..
