The CMake language has the same absence of syntax, and everything is a command as well - like assignments with set(). Oh, and all variables are strings, too like in Tcl. (In CMake, even lists of strings are strings. Don't ask.)
The CMake language was created in a haphazard way as well, with some other important problems that Tcl probably doesn't have.
