Is there anyway I can get this run under Tcl/Tk on Windows NT?  I tried
simply loading ./paco into wish but it failed looking up /usr/....
references.

I haven't tested PACO on Windows. But this should work:

PACO needs two Tcl/Tk extensions loaded as shared object files:

libpgtcl.so - Tcl/Tk Postgres interface
libtix.so   - widget frameset

On Windows this files are LIBPGTCL.DLL and LIBTIX.DLL. The first
is part of Postgres and the second can be downloaded from
ftp://www.neosoft.com/pub/tcl/sorted/packages-7.6/unknown/tixwin41p6bin.zip

You have to edit the PACO source and correct the path. (Search
for the "load" command at top of the file.)

Please let me know if all has done ok.
