Joe Mistachkin has recently added support for calling TH1 scripts on certain actions. See http://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/info/0b61e3c019 In the jimtcl branch, TH1 is replaced with Jim Tcl, so any of these scripts has the full power of Jim Tcl, including exec. There is some ongoing work to be done to identify other points where a script could/should be called, what information is available to the script, and what the script can do. One thing I would like to see is a Tcl interface into fossil so that scripts can do queries against fossil without resorting to direct sql.
