You're kidding, right?
You can only start TSVN by right-clicking on a file/folder in the
shell. You can't start it from the programs list at all. That's shell
integration.
Also, it shows you the status of files/folders as overlays in the shell.

If you're looking for other Subversion UI clients (not necessarily
ones similar to TSVN), you will find a big list on the Subversion
project page. No need for us to duplicate that list.
http://subversion.tigris.org/project_links.html
And please don't expect us to tell you which client has which
advantage over an other one. All (ok, most) clients are always under
heavy development, and such a comparison wouldn't be accurate for more
than a few weeks. Also, such comparisons are always biased towards one
or another. You have to do some work on your own, at least trying out
the clients to see which one is the best for you. We can't do that for
you.
