I have a shell on a FreeBSD system, now when i try to compile the eggdrop bot it says it cant find tcl libraries. It says to test i should write tclsh at the comand prompt to see if they are insalled, when I do that it says i should use tclsh plus the version number... in this case tcl8.2

can i get around this?

Yes.

First you need to know the location of the TCL library path (if version 8.2, the file tcllib8.2.so will be in this directory). Second, you need the location of the tcl header file (tcl.h).

Once you have this information, issue the configure command in the following way
./configure --with-tcl-inc=/path/to/tcl.h --with-tcl-lib=/path/to/tcllib8.2.so
