HI,

It seems my file got screwed up on its way to the dropbox but I have now
uploaded an archived version which appears to have travelled OK. So, if you
want to try this out, use the tkbackplot.tgz file and extract it with
tar -xzvf tkbackplot.tgz . Sorry about the problems.

Ray, can we remove the duff file from the dropbox?
