You will find libtcl.* in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib. If not, try
running
      find / -type f -name libtcl.* -print

tcl.h is probably in /usr/local/include/tcl/ or /usr/include/tcl/,
      find / -type f -name tcl.h -print
if it isnt.

Depends on what shell you are using. Bourne shells follow the following
syntax:
            VARIABLE=string ; export VARIABLE
while csh derivaties use
            setenv VARIABLE string
I believe.

For example,

leo@homer[~] (666) WORLD=hello
leo@homer[~] (667) export WORLD
leo@homer[~] (668) echo WORLD
WORLD
leo@homer[~] (669) echo $WORLD
hello
leo@homer[~] (690) 

Look at ~/.profile and ~/.cshrc for examples and man sh or man csh
for explanations.
