I often use the tool that is closest to another tool I am using. The closeness may be due to a common heritage, both technical and cultural. A common thread between the two is often high quality, maturity, cross-fertilization, long-term commitment, etc. Now when it comes to Tcl, I use it for the above reasons because it is so convenient for writing scripts to use SQLite. In other words, it is my go-to wrapper for many SQLite applications. This is mainly related to (rapid) prototyping use cases. From https://sqlite.org/tclsqlite.html https://sqlite.org/tclsqlite.html : > The SQLite library is designed to be very easy to use from a Tcl or Tcl/Tk script. SQLite began as a Tcl extension and the primary test suite for SQLite is written in TCL. SQLite can be used with any programming language, but its connections to TCL run deep.
