Purpose: to discuss the reasons why one would not use a tclkit/starkit based solution?
On a different wiki page, where such a discussion would have been off topic, the question "I don't understand why more people don't use tclkit" came up.
Some of the reasons include:
- ignorance - just not aware that the technology exists
- no need - a simple tclsh meets a simple script appliation need, and results in a smaller footprint
- problems building tclkit - the source distribution doesn't always build on every platform without problem, and there are people who don't easily have access to build components
- lack of familarity in process of building starkit/starpacks
