Purpose: pointers to tutorials, books, tips, etc. for creating, interacting, etc. [Tcl] via the C API. Tcl's original purpose, as detailed in [John Ousterhout]'s seminal Usenet paper, [ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/doc/tclUsenix90.ps] [[Anyone have a URL to this paper in html?]] was to provide a developer with a standard language that could be embedded in their applications, providing continuity and ease learning curves. So in the beginning, the intent was that Tcl would be accessed only via the [C] [API]. Over the years, some have lost sight of that goal due to the simplicity of using the tclsh sample application that builds as a part of compiling the Tcl libraries.
