Tcl was the scripting language in the mIRC IRC client, and as a 13 year old, my first foray into programming.
I started writing little scripts to boot annoying people off IRC, but ended up caring more about coding than IRC politics - and ended up writing a full blown Napster clone in Tcl.
I feel like I owe my career to Tcl opening these doors for me - so thank you John.
- waitwhats 2y agomIRC has it's own scripting language that doesn't have to do with Tcl. Maybe you are talking about eggdrop IRC bot that uses Tcl as its scripting language - but then your comment and attribution doesn't really make sense.
