The reason I suggested Tcl was it makes strings easy. Most everything
is a string in Tcl. There are also no commas, parenthesis, or quotation
marks. Everyone hates Tcl, and I accept that.
For those of you who don't know enough about Tcl to hate it, please
check out:

My only desire is that we move on to another language better than the
one we have now. Lua seems to fit the bill.
