Re: [ns] [Q] Legitimate registration of a new Tcl code parts

[Haobo Yu <haoboy@packetdesign.com>]

(the simplest way is) you must put it in tcl/lib/ns-lib.tcl for it to be
included. Please read some later workshop slides (e.g. Polly's) on this. 

In fact all you need to do is to include that tcl in your sim script. No
need to recompile thatway. tcl is an interpreted language anyawy
