 installed Pallet a couple of days ago and have been trying to figure out
 how to get it to run. As soon as i start it a dialog pops up over the main
 window asking me to locate the TCL installation that it was built with.

 I am running a clean install of Snow Leopard and i followed the
 instructions for installing Macports into it .. so no migration issues.
 Installed Macports from the .dmg for Snow Leo.
 I do not have a /Library/TCL folder after installing MacPorts.
 I checked on the old boot drive (Tiger 10.4.11) and the /Library/TCL
 folder is there .. so macports used to install the TCL folder .. but not
 now?

 my machine is an older MacBook (not Pro) with a Intel Core Duo (not Core 2
 Duo) so i can only run 32 bit apps, if that makes a difference.

 is Pallet supposed to install the TCL folder .. and is failing to do so ..
 or is it supposed to be created by MacPort install?  or am i supposed to
 install TCL from scratch?  which will be a serious pain as many other apps
 depend on TCL and so all have to be uninstalled if i have to rip out TCL.
