Summary: Allow use of embedded Tcl without requiring Tk

Initial Comment:
Two things:

1) docstrings added to most attributes of the _tkinter 
app object


2) allow the user to create Tkinter.Tcl objects which are 
just like Tkinter.Tk objects except that they do not 
initialize Tk.  This is useful in circumstances where the 
script is being run on machines that do not have an X 
server running -- in those cases, Tk initialization fails, 
even if no window is ever created.

I'll be glad to discuss the implementation choices.

This has been tested on Windows, Linux, and Solaris.

I'm hoping to figure out how to attach the test file as 
well.  I don't have any documentation patch -- I'm 
willing to contribute one, but given the state of Tkinter 
documentation am not sure where to start...
