# The lang/jimtcl port

## jimtcl-0.77pl2p0 – small footprint implementation of Tcl

## Description

    Jim is a small footprint implementation of the Tcl programming language
    written from scratch. Currently Jim Tcl is very feature complete with an
    extensive test suite. There are some Tcl commands and features which are
    not implemented (and likely never will be), including namespaces, traces
    and Tk. However Jim Tcl offers a number of both Tcl8.5 and Tcl8.6
    features ({*}, dict, lassign, tailcall and optional UTF-8 support) and
    some unique features. These unique features include [lambda] with
    garbage collection, a general GC/references system, arrays as syntax
    sugar for [dict]tionaries, object-based I/O and more.
