[TDK-BETA] devkit problems

RE: [TDK-BETA] ActiveState releases Tcl Dev Kit 2.5 beta 2 | RE: [TDK-BETA] devkit problems
I have been trying out prodebug et al from devkit beta 1 on Linux (Mandrake9) 
and have had a few problems:

1) prodebug reports that  \# in the expression [regexp -- {^\#} $line] has no 
meaning.

2) prodebug reports that regsub in the following call has the wrong number of 
arguments:
	set aname [string tolower [regsub -all { } $kname {}]]

3) In prodebug I can save a project but if I try to open it I get an init 
failure:

an't read "v": no such variable
can't read "v": no such variable
    while executing
"# Compiled -- no source code available
error "called a copy of a compiled script""
    (procedure "proj::openProj" line 1)
    invoked from within
"# Compiled -- no source code available

    (procedure "proj::openProjCmd" line 1)
    invoked from within

    invoked from within
"tk::MenuInvoke .mainDbgWin.#mainDbgWin#menubar.#mainDbgWin#menubar#file 1
"
    (command bound to event)


4) if you start proinspect and immediately try file> new window you get a font 
error:
named font "fixedFont" already exists

    while executing
"font create fixedFont -family Courier -size 9"

    invoked from within

    (procedure ".main1.value" line 3)
    invoked from within
"$window create"
    (procedure "value" line 9)
    invoked from within

    (procedure "tkinspect_main:create" line 75)

    ("uplevel" body line 1)
    invoked from within

    (procedure ".main1" line 3)
    invoked from within

    (procedure "tkinspect_main" line 9)
    invoked from within
"tkinspect_main .main1"
    ("eval" body line 1)
    invoked from within
"# Compiled -- no source code available

    (procedure "tkinspect_create_main_window" line 1)
    invoked from within
"tkinspect_create_main_window"
    invoked from within
".main0.#main0#menu.#main0#menu#file invoke active"
    ("uplevel" body line 1)
    invoked from within

    invoked from within

    (command bound to event)


5) If I use proinspect to view a proc in a running program the font used in 
the text is tiny (I'm using 1280x1024) and there doesn't seem to be any way 
of changing it.

6) When my licence file wasn't installed and I tried to run the programs I got 
all sorts of horrible error messages. I know it's okay once the licence is 
installed but I'm sure a nice simple message about there not being a valid 
licence and what can be done about it would give the user a much warmer 
feeling about the product as a whole should they encounter that problem.

Hope that feedback helps.
