...only if you use tkcon. do you?

there should be a way to do it generally. one can probably (ab)use the
infrastructure that i programmed in the VMDCON patches in the current
cvs code, those are, however, not yet compiled into the normal
distribution and i have not thought about how to cleanly implement
a way to silence this kind of console output in a clean fashion.
i'd probably have to convert the whole psfgen module to use the
prioritized output from vmdcon.C. hmmm...

something along those lines will, in fact, be needed for anybody running
tcl commands on the console (even text mode) on large systems.

cheers,
