Fleet is an extension and library for the [JTcl Interpreter] that enables simple concurrent programming.  A fleet contains one or more interpreters (members), each running in a separate thread.  Communication to the fleet members is done via the ''fleetName tell'' command, passing a script to evaluate.  Results of the fleet members' script evaluation is communicated back to the main interpreter by updating a variable, or by invoking a procedure, with a [dict] that contains the status and results of the evaluation.

Fleet is new beginning with JTcl 2.3.0, and is subject to change.  For more information, see the fleet man page at: http://jtcl.kenai.com/docs/jtcllib/fleet.html
