i'm kinda new to linux and dsl...i'm running dsl 0.9.1 embedded version...downloading amsn.tar.gz from the mydsl repository (as well as a few other apps). i installed it by going to emelfm and clicking the "mydsl". the icon appears on the desktop and the link is in the mydsl menu. but it doesn't load. all the other mydsl extensions that i downloaded work, except for this.....any idea why?

Please read the .info files that are associated with the extensions.

Either using the MyDSL icon or thru the web repository,
both offer easy access to the .info files.

Here is the one for amsn.tar.gz

Title:              amsn.tar.gz
Description:        Alvaro's MSN messenger
Version:            .93
Author:             Alvaro J. Iradier Muro
Original-site:      http://amsn.sourceforge.net/
Copying-policy:     GPL
========================================================
Extension by:       tecker
Comments:           Please note that it needs the tcltk8.3 dsl to run.
                   A full featured messenger for one of the most
                   popular chat clients around.
                   tecker83[at]NOSAPM-yahoo[dot]net.    
Change-log:
                   06/30/2004 - First version
           07/31/2004 - Rebuilt for cross-compat
                   08/07/2004 - Added TLS to eleminate the extra download
   08/07/2004 - Removed dirs/docs - corrected owners/perms

would not be too hard to make the mydsl gui system automatically look for tcl and if it is not there then install.
