I'm having a problem getting my VTCL applications to shut down properly.
I'm running XFree86 3.2 with Afterstep as the WM.  If i chmod 700 the
file, then run it from an xterm (./file.tcl), it runs fine.  But if I
close the window using the WM's titlebar, it just closes the window and
leaves the xterm still running the script.  Is there a way to detect this
and adjust the shutdown sequence?

Also, if I create a button on the form with the command:

destroy .main
destroy .
exit

And then run it from an xterm, it closes all windows and exits the
program, but It doesn't return control to either the wm or the xterm
properly, as i always have to click on the titlebar of the xterm do get my
cursor back.  I think it might no be freeing the mouse and keyboard
controls properly.

So, how do I do a proper shutdown of a Tk script?

Also ... when I use VTCL to create menu items, if I try and create a
checkbox with a label of "Save Backups?", it adds:

global Save Backups?

To my global variable section, which always causes problems ... Is this a
bug in vtcl?
