I actually really like TCL as a language. It’s very internally consistent, and quite powerful. Has a bit of a LISP flavor.

I agree that its syntax is pretty weird when compared to any other language. And a lot of stuff works differently than you’d expect if you’re coming from Python.

For me, there’s always a mental context switch that needs to happen before I can get in the flow with TCL. Once I’m there though, it’s a very fast/powerful language to implement stuff with.
