This rocks!

I love TCL/TK, it was main programming language for years.....

wooo, I don't even own an amiga anymore, but if I did...wow....sorry Rebol is cool, but nothing like a favorite language being ported....

It's an easy to use scripting language.

I don't want to oversell it, its not the end all and be all of computer langauges.  It can be used for quite complex projects, but then, the code on those projects looks quite complex....

for knocking out a quick script to automate this task or that, I think its good.

Hey on windows it did have a full compiler...not the standard version but you could get it, eventually even for free...and another thing, you can use the source code to put the tcl/tk engine in your own product...again compiling it.

But the easiest thing was to use a wrapper...I did this many times, basically I just included the whole tcl/tk engine with my program, and wrapped it all up in one package, and the user ran it like any other executable...but truly I did not recompile anything...
