Tcl API as a replacement for glib?
This page lists all functions present in the Tcl 8.5 API:
http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/TclLib/contents.htm
Might this be a replacement for Glib? Cross-platform unicode handling, threading, filesystem operations, virtual filesystems, hash tables, lists, channels, event-loop, regular expressions, networking, process handling, etc. As bonus you get an optional cross-platform embeddable interpreter and a portable GUI add-on (Tk).
Suddenly, I want to use this for my next project, whatever it will be.
