The language core is still actively used, but not in the way most people assume.
Expanding TCL C support proves it is not deprecated as some suggested (most Java VM also run a dual stack with C/C++ native binary object support.)
Automated remote host administration with TCL is one area where it still works extremely well... I guess it is not relevant if people like pseudo-repetitive typing... so much typing people actually know all the parameters to tar without the manual. lol
Have a great day =3
- johnisgood 1y agoNitpick: it is Tcl, not TCL, just like how Ada is not ADA.
- Joel_Mckay 1y agoFollowing the Wikipedia citation will point people here: https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/Tcl+vs%2E+TCL https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/Tcl+vs%2E+TCL Which gets into the syntactical preference people developed over time. The Tool Command Language acronym allusion is rather distinct from a popular "Tcl" colloquialism for the "tickle" project. From my perspective Tcl is a TCL, but not all TCLs are necessarily Tcl nor include a specific extension package. Have a glorious day friend =3
- johnisgood 1y agoWhen I say it out loud, I say T-C-L, too, but I write it as Tcl. You have a nice day too! =3
