OVERVIEW:
  TkFibs is a tcl/tk program that is a graphical front-end to FIBS.
It automatically connects to the server, and processes the data stream
between the server and the client.  

  This version of TkFibs is written completely in tcl/tk using the 
socket commands added in tcl 7.5.

  Tcl/tk is a scripting language and graphical user interface. It is
available from ftp.smli.com in /pub/tcl.
