Sure, tcl isn't as popular as Go right now.
Still, tcl is appealing in some ways.
http://www.tcl.tk/doc/scripting.html
Was wondering if Go could be summarized as Plan 9 in language-space.
(Ready... aim... fire)
It seems like Plan 9 already "got it right" in the systems realm.
(Arguments against Ousterhout's dichotomy, fire away)
Seems like Plan 9 and tcl/tk would complement each other well.
Also, this is somewhat unrelated, but I was wondering whether each Go
executable contains the garbage collector. (It must, it seems, but just
checking).
