hat0 has also written a simple ssh launcher and a pure-tcl BMP reader/writer.

And here is a link to a little package which can be used to preload DLLs on a Windows-based machine: dllfix

It's March of 2010. I've been asking around today, what sort of vision people have for Tcl, five years out.
Alex Ferrieux says, "freeze as perfect, like /bin/sh"
Colin says, "if I have any vision at all, it's about making Tcl smaller by making its innards more introspective and able to be implemented in Tcl. If you can generate bytecode from Tcl, then you can write all (or some, or many) of the compilation of Tcl commands to Bytecode *in* Tcl." Benefit is an advantage in speed of writing/improving the standard library. Drawback is a period of lack of stability in the core.
SEH: Are you soliciting further comment?
These are my thoughts about things that could improve tcl, or various different directions tcl could go, so that it is not just another language in 2015, but a language of growing importance/relevance.
