Hi Phil,
The message is due to a security problem in the X server if you use the default
security settings. I know of it but I do not have a handy receipe to solve it.
Tk's send command allows you to send any command to the X host, which is why
this message pops up.
The Tk driver requires some Unix-specific routines and therefore they are not
buildable on Windows. The ntk driver does not. Something I might look into
post-release.
Regards,
Arjen
