Re: [cobalt-developers] How do TCL works?

["John C. Bacon" <bacon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Who knows what you are trying to accomplish, but if you really want to use
TCL here is some advice:
1. DON'T ruin it on your Cobalt products (for more reasons that you'll ever
know)
2. you WILL want to NOT use Apache
3. you WILL (almost) HAVE to use AOL Server (http://www.aolserver.com)
4. DON'T expect it to be an easy and efficient long term alternative to CGI
or PHP
5. TCL resources http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Tcl/ (as
opposed to thousands of cgi or php)

6. last but never least.......business is business, it's never personal, I'd
give them two options
a. do it the 'can-host' way, using your existing 'never needed TCL  before'
capabilities
b. tell them to go elsewhere...  let them drag someone else (not YOU) down!
