thank you! I hope it serves you well.

this is what the Attribute Editor window was designed for. if it is
not opened when you start Visual Tcl, then you can bring it up from
the "Window" menu. make sure you press <Return> after changing a
value to make it stick.

The file is only saved when you do a "File->Save". The "test" mode
simply activates widgets for immediate interaction. There is no
way (at this time) to re-run the application within Visual Tcl as if
it was started from the command line. I will add this feature soon.

uhmm, nope. sorry 'bout that. I am hoping to stabilize the interface before
embarking on a massive doc project.
