Nope.  The -display argument is a feature of Xlib, not Tk, so it isn't
available in win32 ports of Tk.

Correct.

If you want -display to work on Windows you still have the option of
building the Xlib version of Tk in Cygwin, then running on a remote X
server.  But I suspect that's not what you were after.
