--- Comment #11 from Jim D. <radicleparticles at gmail.com> ---
Now that I have TK and TCL reinstalled, there is one change needed in file
patch (case change):

set termtype(Mate-Terminal_...).. => set termtype(MATE-Terminal_...) ..

Application works with patches and local modifications.

Still need to do more testing from application removal to application
installation as there seems to be some differences in the "config" file that
gets created versus what I had after making simple "Gnome" => "Mate" change in
the  "<home>.secpanel/config" file. By default, the inital "config" file has
only 2 lines whereas my "in-use config" file has 20 lines. 

FWIW - I also modified the 'set termtype(MATE...path) "mate-terminal"' to
include a geometry paramater " --geometry=97x26". Don't know of an easy way to
provide another Makefile option to select a "default terminal window size". May
be able to specify a mate-terminal profile as defined by user (profile/General
"Use custom default terminal size") using the mate-terminal "--profile="
parameter rather than raw geometry parameter.

P.S. I use this application A LOT and it is VERY HANDY. I only have 15 entries
("secpanel profiles") but it saves me a lot of work opening up multiple,
concurent, SSH sessions which I use just about every day for my own PHP/Apache
development).
