[BioC] limmaGUI: Warning: ActiveTcl could not be found...

Marcelo,

If you have installed ActiveTcl with administrator priveliges, 
it should create an entry in the Windows Registry, and then 
limmaGUI should find it and automatically add the Tcl Path so 
that limmaGUI can find Tktable and BWidget in C:\Tcl\lib\ or 
wherever.  But maybe it's getting confused between registry 
entries for "all users" and registry entries for "just you".  

You could try the following from the R prompt before you run 
limmaGUI.  If they work, you could even add them into your 
.Rprofile so they run every time you start R.

Sys.putenv("TCL_LIBRARY"="C:/Tcl/lib")
Sys.putenv("MY_TCLTK"="Yes")
addTclPath("C:/Tcl/lib")
require(tcltk)

If you still get the warning about ActiveTcl, you may be able to 
ignore and just start limmaGUI()

Let me know if this works.

If it doesn't work, please tell me what happens when you type:
require(tcltk)
tclvalue("auto_path")


Regards,
James
