Hi Nabby,

The executable of the vtkITK application can be found in
the subdirectory

              vtkITK/Wrapping/Tcl

of the binary directory where you built InsightApplications.

The executable that you will find is called vtkITK,
and is a modified "wish" like   vtk.exe.

Note that this application in particular is taking ITK filters,
packaging them inside VTK filters and then wrapping them
for Tcl.  

This is one way, among many, for combining ITK and VTK.
It is particularly tailored for VTK users accustomed to Tcl
scripting.

A more C++ way of combining VTK and ITK is available
in the directory:

    InsightApplications/SegmentationEditorFltkGui

which combines ITK, VTK and FLTK in an application
implementing Watershed segmentation techniques.

You may find this application more appealing.
