Real name Mark Janssen ([Tcl Chatroom] nick: mjanssen). I have been using Tcl since 2004 and I love it. ---- There are several reasons I love Tcl: * It supports Unicode in code and GUI * It is truely interactive: Open a console in your application and see what is really going on * Tclkit or Starkit deployment is very, very convenient * It is very easy to install libraries without changing config files all over the place * The community is great * Very simple syntax and everything is a string: This allows for some funcky stuff like redefining proc * The C-API is one of the easiest of any of the ones I have seen (Perl, Python, Ruby) this makes it very easy to wrap C libraries. See for an example [readline] ---- '''Pages I contributed to''' * [Alternative Namespaces] * [Tailing widget] * [Tcl Interface to WinPCAP] * [less] * [readline] * [Angles on a compass] * [exec quotes problem] * [SNMP parser] * [WBXML] * [tedit] - Tcl only text editor with Emacs like functionality (sort of). Bindtags are so cool. * [newexec] * [self] and my C-implementation at [SELF extension] * [scriptaculous] * [SOCKS proxy] * [XOTcl Objects as Tcl Commands with subcommands] * [Tuplespace] * [Event tutorial] * [Engineering Notation] * [Overridden commands] - restoring Tcl internal commands that have been overridden beyond your control * [Wizard] * [Retrieve file icon using the Win32 API] * [Scratchpad] * [NTLM] * [cal] ---- [[ [Category Person] ]]
