Instructions to build stand-alone tkdiff (no tk required)
for Windows and Mac:

To make a stand-alone starpack for Windows (can be done on Linux)
  1. Get tclkit for your platform and install it in your PATH.
  2. Get tclkit.exe for Windows and put it somewhere like in $HOME/TclKit.
  3. Get diff.exe and uninstall.exe for Windows.  Put them where tkdiff is.
  4. Edit PackStarpack so $Tclkit points to where you put it.
  5. Run PackStarpack.  It will produce the stand-alone tkdiff.exe

Windows installer:
  6. Get InstallJammer for Windows.
  7. Start InstallJammer and open TkDiff.mpi with it.  Edit the Tkdiff
      version number. Re-save the mpi. (Or edit the mpi file first.)
  8. Click "Build Installer" in InstallJammer.  It will produce an "output"
      directory with a Windows installer in it.

To make a stand-alone TkDiff.app for MacOS X (has to be done on a Mac):
  1. Get a Wish standalone like TclTkAquaStandalone-8.4.9 from
      http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/, unpack it,  and put it 
      somewhere like in your Downloads directory.  I recommend
      being a little conservative and not using the very latest
      version.  The last one I had success with was 8.4.9.
  2. Get buildDMG.pl (or some similar utility) and have it in your PATH.
  3. Edit the TkDiff version numbers in Info.plist and PackApp.
  4. Run PackApp. It copies the Wish stand-alone, turns it into a TkDiff
     stand-alone, then makes a disk image and gzips the disk image.
