When a tcl script is used as a CGI scrip (linux) , the env array is not
initialized

Tcl deamons launced at rc.local level don't have the same environnment
tclsh doesn't seem to have the same encoding than tclsh launched from the
linux shell

how to overcome these problems

Some information about this problem can be found on the Wiki:
<http://wiki.tcl.tk/1382> for instance.

It is due to the way the environment variables are inherited from the
parent process. If you want more control over this, make sure you
set the variables via an .tclrc file or the like.
