Version 4 of Everything's a ...

(Radical Minimalism in Tcl)

  • Tcl: everything's a string
  • Starkit: everything's a metakit
  • RS: everything's a proc
  • vfs: everything's a file system

I think there are a lot of radical minimalists among Tclers, and that's a good thing (although one might ask why there needs to be more than one minimalist, or more than one kind of minimalism :)


Some more Everything's a ...

  • CMCc: everything's an array

I'm considering a mapping from array to directory, such that get/set are reead/write files, array names is glob, and so on. This is the dual of vfs's everything's a file system

This would be quite nice for persisting config arrays, and reasonably efficient by combination with Everything's a file system
