Ok -  I think,  that the  road to  nowhere means  we will
write another Tcl/Tk :-(  I am thinking economically: are
you  sure we  have enough  resources for  that? Until  we
finish Grass  5.1 -  Tcl/Tk in new  version will  be much
wider available.

But I  am working  on Linux -  maybe upgrading  Tcl/Tk on
other Un*x systems is more complicated...

I am  very happy  we start  i18n work,  and forgive  me I
insist on it.
