Discussion

The page, Companies That Use Tcl was folded into this page on 2013-03-08. There may be useful information in the history of that page.

Several years ago, at a time before Tcl was well-known as a “mission-critical”-grade product, CL maintained Cameron Laird’s personal notes on commercial aspects of Tcl . There’s still useful information there, but also a lot of dead links. The Developers Exchange front page [L1 ] used to point to several interesting industrial uses of Tcl.

very nice, the best marketing way
