I use and develop EtLinux. It's Linux, Tcl and Tcl scripts. And not
necesseraly glibc (libc5 is supported, and soon uclibc). Yes, it's
used in real life.

I suspect you'll hate me on the technical level. You are welcome, and
you're not alone.

I do it pretty often, especially when I talk in public. Despite I run
linux+tcl.


Moral: never say never, you got it wrong twice.  And you're a little
too strong in your posts.

/alessandro, who would better stay off this thread. No, he doesn't use BK.
