No, it should work on Windows too. The line is only relevant if you want 
to run the script directly as an executable program, without feeding it 
to tclsh. If you start tclsh with the script as the first argument, it 
should work on any platform.

No testing on Windows is done however. There might be some issues with 
the line ending convention (LF vs CR,LF).

But knowing where to find a unix computer is always a good idea ;-),
