Congratulations. I call that much more than limited success since troubles you had with -dev wingcc presumably have nothing to do with Tcl, and would, for example, also show up for the C examples. Thus, the successful tcl example results with the PostScript device shows you now have the Tcl interface to PLplot working properly on both MinGW and Cygwin, and I hope you use your combination of Tcl and Windows skills to play further with this interface (and also -dev tk and the Tk examples) on those two platforms as well as the bare windows platform.
