One drawback I see at the moment of Tcl vs. Arexx on the Amiga is that the
former one is not made into a .library. As such, an unreasonable duplication of
code would result when multiple programs use it (which is what one would want
to do).  While this duplication is uninportant in virtual-memory systems like
UNIX, it can be a BIG drawback on systems like the Amiga. Currently Arexx runs
a single version of the interpreter plus a number of libraries. Are you guys
at hackercorp working on a Tcl library?
