How to get Size of a dir in TCL ?

Hello, and (yet another) 'thank you' for reading this...

I have been looking this up everywhere (to my knowledge that is) but
I cannot find it in the ActiveTcl Manual. I stumbled upon a module called
TWAPI (Tcl Windows API) hoping that this would give me hooks to
explorer attributes.... but no, only for files and then only for access
rights...

It can't be that getting the size of a directory is not a common task no
matter which language you are using.

So how do I fetch this in Tcl, please?

Thanks for any and replies or pointers to additional text.

Cheers
DJ
