Subject: [9fans] I suppose if there's no other way to do it (a quote from the tcl web site)

"Sure, some other languages have libraries for accessing web or ftp
sites, or looking inside zip files. But how many provide an open ended
and extensible system that allows you to access any such resource using
the same I/O commands you'd use with regular disk files?"

but this is a really odd quote.
And I actually like tcl ...
