yes.

Here is where I am not agreed.

IMHO if you're using teapot you'll better use entire ActiveTCL.

Teapot contains too much small files, config entries and even windows-registry 
entries - which is what I seriously dislike.

When I tried to move teapot-enabled TCL to another directory - all broke - it 
is not moveable.
I am not going to criticize teapot - it just works for many people - it just do 
not suffice me.

BUT! Once you included teapot - you already paid the price - so just use entire 
ActiveTCL distro - at least you'll get many features!

(that time I only said that ordinary user will not rebuild tcl, tk, blt, tix as 
I did - using MSVC compiler)

Just my opinion.

BR,
Vadim.
