I was wondering how others are handling creation and maintenance of
packages for tcl. Here's what I mean. What I _think_ I would like
to have is a central 'package index' where all of the packages I
have installed are indexed. Then, if that index is in the autopath,
everything is automatically found.

However, each package installs itself into its own directories, etc.

So how can I arrange things so that a copy of the index, or whatever,
is maintained in one place?

Also, can someone take a look at this and tell me what silly thing I
am doing wrong? It must be too early... When I run this, I get no
index built, and am left inside Tcl. Please be gentle.

#! /usr/tcl75/sun4/bin/tclsh --
# shell command access to mkIndex so that users can build their own indexs.

pkg_mkIndex $argv
