Tcl/Tk shares a similar problem with many "dynamic languages" in that
they are hard to debug, since everything happens at runtime. The
delayed execution levels in Tcl using "" [] and {} can be a mind bender.

Gumby, nice, lol. I have now discovered that someone created Tcl/Tk interpreters for
Csound too. There goes the next few months of my life. I have to ask, though (reply off-list if it's too OT): when you say
Tcl is wacky, just how wacky do you mean? I noticed that its
handling of most programming capabilities is pretty off-beat, but
I'm finding it very easy to learn and understand, as others have
said. Would you say there are serious flaws or inefficiencies, or
is it just idiosyncratic?-Chuckk

Tcl is whacky, but Tk is quite flexible and well developed for
