My experience with Tcl goes back to 1994 or something, when I investigated several scripting languages for our company and I fell in love with Tcl. Other contenders at the time were
Visual Basic,
AppleScript,
Rexx (all more or less platform specific) and
Perl (which I don't like because most syntax features feel very ad-hoc to me). Since than I have used Tcl for some major and minor projects, simple GUIs and lots of small scripts to get things done.
At the moment I spend some time improving the
MacOS X port (see [
1] and [
2]). In the process I am also researching general shortcomings of Tk (
bidi and
KeySyms on platforms other than X11).
