I did not call yours (whatever it were) 'an abomination', so please do
not label
mine as such. Tcl/Tk is usable and being used by not a small community.
It is
true that the interpreter (cannot *really* call it a 'language') does
not aspire to
heights of theoretical elegance and cristalline beauty - but this
results in tclers
being a bit shy and non-proselitysing. And it always brings a smile to
our faces
when we discover another well-known commercial package with
configuration
files in Tcl.
