> I just wish there was a Tcl that was redesigned from a modern perspective. Give me first-class lambdas. Give me unnamed objects that get destroyed automatically (with a callback) when out of scope[1] so I don’t have to use a weird namespace hack to make the object and rely on the caller to invoke the destroy method. If you take a look at jimtcl (minimalistic reimplementation of tcl, started by antirez - he of redis fame), it did take some steps towards the above. - unified arrays with dicts - proper lambdas - (sort of) closures In many ways, I personally feel its a shame that jimtcl has felt the need to tie itself down to tcl-compatibility as much as it has. A few more warts could have been fixed along the way. Anyway, check it out. It's manpage is quite comprehensive
