Re: [fossil-users] any interest in integrating jimtcl w/fossil?

[Steve Havelka]

Excuse my bluntness:  that sounds like a terrible idea.  Tcl is huge 
compared to fossil, and certainly not installed everywhere by default.  
And for what benefit?  To have a full-blown programming language built 
in?  That of course isn't a benefit in itself.  If an organization needs 
some sort of sophisticated processing attached to a hook, e.g. some 
verification on commits, let them call an external program, a shell 
script, a tcl script, whatever.  Embedding an interpreter into Fossil 
itself, to run code called by the hook, seems like entirely the wrong 
approach.
