Anyone use TCL to develop sites with?

What do you think of it compared to PHP and others?

Hi,

Anyone use TCL to develop sites with? If so, what
do you think of it? Especially in regards to
dynamic sites -- and compared to the other
scripting languages like PHP?

Thanks for sharing,

Louis

I know that you can do quite intensive Tcl stuff in the AOLserver, however, I have never used Tcl seriously except using it together with Tk to do some simple GUI stuff. I don't even use Tk with Tcl now since I found Python 2 years ago :) It might be a simple language, but when you face the big "P"s in the world of web development (Perl, PHP, Python), it is quite dull to use.

I also would like to know why someone would use Tcl instead of Perl/PHP/Python in web development, since you can also use Python in AOLserver now.

Hi,

The reason I was asking about TCL is due to existing TCL coded web stuff out there that one could use.

Was wondering how widespread TCL useage was in web development today.

Thanks!
