Tcl has the advantage of rapid development, tcl: especially for small GUI apps using Tk, though limits in speed and tcl: available data types hinder use as a programming language for large tcl: projects. However, the (not included) Incr Tcl extensions allow larger, tcl: more structured application development. An important philosophy behind tcl: Tcl is that large applications should be implemented with more than one tcl: language for different functionality; Tcl is therefore easy to embed in tcl: C.
