"Why in src? It is a binary distriution." Yes, I have the binary distribution ( but it is not found in RTools ) " Rtools30.exe does this for you. But you put it at the top level in the sources. " Maybe I do not know where the 'top level' is located. Please, help. I used "tree /f" and search for "tk" and "tcl" files in my F:\RTools folder This is only what I have found tk -- msstkppg.h libatkctrs.a libsoftkbd.a tcl --- batclass.h certcli.h napenforcementclient.h portcls.h libcertcli.a libeventcls.a libstclient.a ( no tlc.h and no tk.h files are found ) Here is a "tree" of the directory structure ( If the 'tcl and tk' binaries were once there, they are not there now. ) Note, the RTools GUI installer has a leak in the installation. In the middle of the installation it spills out my PATH onto the GUI install form. I can not see any more words or checkboxes or options. I only have the realistic option to press Finish and end the installation there. Anyways, Here is a tree of my F:\RTools folder F:\Rtools>tree F:. ├───bin └───gcc-4.6.3 ├───bin ├───bin32 ├───bin64 ├───i686-w64-mingw32 │ ├───bin │ ├───include │ │ ├───ddk │ │ ├───gdiplus │ │ ├───GL │ │ ├───psdk_inc │ │ ├───sdks │ │ ├───sec_api │ │ │ └───sys │ │ └───sys │ ├───lib │ │ └───ldscripts │ └───lib64 ├───include │ └───c++ │ └───4.6.3 │ ├───backward │ ├───bits │ ├───debug │ ├───decimal │ ├───ext │ │ └───pb_ds │ │ └───detail │ │ ├───basic_tree_policy FILES │ │ ├───trie_policy │ │ └───unordered_iterator │ ├───i686-w64-mingw32 │ │ ├───64 │ │ │ └───bits │ │ └───bits │ ├───parallel │ ├───profile │ │ └───impl │ └───tr1 ├───lib │ └───gcc │ └───i686-w64-mingw32 │ └───4.6.3 │ ├───64 │ ├───include │ │ └───ssp │ ├───include-fixed │ └───install-tools │ └───include ├───lib64 ├───libexec │ └───gcc │ └───i686-w64-mingw32 │ └───4.6.3 │ └───install-tools └───share └───gdb └───syscalls F:\Rtools> No "tcl"and no "tk" folders are found.

Where is the correct place to place the Tcl folder so that that the process ( that is run from 'make all' ) can find the tcl.h file. Thus, and I do not get the error? Please help.
