How do I get Tk send to work?
Tk “send” lets two TCL interpreters issue commands to each other, and it uses the X server for communication. Beginning with TK 3.3, this also honors the Xauthority protocol, unless you compile TK with -DTK_NO_SECURITY. You can test this by running the following command: echo ‘send exmh {Exmh_Status “Hello, world!”}; exit’ | wish If this fails you need to recompile or learn how to start your X server so that it does Xauthority right. Note that even if you set up Xauthority right, you need to make sure the old-fashioned xhost list is empty.
