>Part of my reason for being so hellbent upon proliferating tänzer is to improve the state of affairs for Tcl's perception by the wider community. It's a beautiful language, and a well-considered ecosystem. After being impressed by the "GopherJS" golang to js transpiler, I would love to see a corresponding Tcl/Tk to js transpiler, particularly one with Tk supported as transparently as possible in a browser canvas (or whatever). Greater than 90% of the GUI utilities I write can be handled using Tk's stock widgets. The ability quickly mash together a Tk interface in Tcl/Tk and compile it to js would be a productivity multiplier. It's almost 2015 and front-ends are still a bear to write and maintain and keeping up with the js framework fads is exhausting. GUI development can and should be as easy as Tk made it ~20 years ago.
