tclperl... it just works(TM)
http://jfontain.free.fr/tclperl.htm
I downloaded a binary of tclperl, which embeds a perl interpreter in
tcl and allows you to call arbitrary perl code. I dropped some files in
my /tcl/lib folder and was able to run the example code. It doesn't
share variables or allow callbacks, but ...
it works as billed.
Something on the web page caught my eye - "Be careful because the perl
interpeter shares STDIN, STDOUT, STDERR". Hmm. I'm going to see if I
can use the perl's fastcgi to run OpenACS as an AppClass-style
application on Windows...something that can't be done in pure TCL.
This would make it easier to deploy, and open up some interesting
synergy possibilities.
