LV: Hey, if you know of other computer programming languages which have some Tcl/Tk relationship, add them above. Also, if you know of people who have written other languages, based on Tcl, add them as well.
CL also occasionally comments on this topic in [L13 ].
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_language_timeline is an interesting Wiki page, a part of an internet encyclopedia. The page provides a time line of applications and programming languages created from 1840 through 2001.
Then there is the Computer Programming Language Dictionary [L14 ] - check out what it says about Tcl.
http://www.acooke.org/andrew/writing/lang.html is a discussion of programming languages, and mentions Tcl as the grand daddy of scripting languages.
