Looks like a very interesting little language, I enjoyed working with TCL a fair bit due to things like wish being so interactive. It's also interesting that they added pointers to TCL, which solves my biggest gripe with TCL.
- luckydude 11y agoTcl had them already, we're just using upvar under the covers. upvar uses the variable in the stack frame you specify. Which is clever and all but sort of a pain to use so we just did the &this_is_sort_of_a_pointer thing but it's a compiler managed upvar under the covers.
- ob 11y agoThat was actually the original prototype. Little has moved on to have a pointer object type.
