How to Compile Tcl Source Releases

UNIX

You'll want both Tcl and Tk sources. Choose between compressed tar and gzipped tar format. The files listed under the Windows sources contain the same information but are in ZIP format.

Gzip'ed Tar Files

Extract these with this UNIX command line:

gunzip < 
file.tar.gz | tar xvf -

Windows

If you have downloaded the Unix version of these files, there is no need to also download these versions since these files are identical but in ZIP format instead of compressed tar.
