The term '''embedded''' is typically used when talking about software hidden
within a hardware ''appliance'' in a manner not normally seen.  See "[What
'embedding' means]".

Software within your television, VCR, CD, MP3, DVD players, microwave, or
router are all examples of some degree of embedding.

Tcl is frequently used for embedded systems.
