You definitely do not want to install Tcl/Tk via Cygwin.  That gives
you a weird hybrid that depends on Cygwin, which your target system
won't have, and only works with an Xserver for Tk.

Cygwin is a great environment for a Unix developer to be productive
and comfortable on Windows, so edit your files with vi on Cygwin,
but use a true Windows version of Tcl/Tk to actually distribute
anything...

I'm not sure how well maintained it is anymore, but I have used Freewrap
in the past for wrapping everything up as one Windows exe.
