I don't think it should replece it, because most people are used to
regular Tk, and probably want it.  It's like we don't replace Xaw with
Xaw3d, Xaw95, or NeXtAw.  Also, doesn't it  include a little extra
functionality so that You can use TkStep as normal Tk, but you can't
replace a program meant for TkStep with Tk?

Thanks,
