TCL/TK has sun behind it which when they employed Ousterhout they also
took his language with them. They then spun off Scriptics and several
commercial products. All of them with a not to friendly price tag. Hell
even the student versions of any products is over 200USD.

LINUX is a kernel for a OS, not really practical in a programming language
discussion.

REBOL does not have Amiga behind it. Rebol Inc. is a privately held
company at the moment. Sure investors, individual/corporate thats their
biz. The bottom line though is that it is its own company. Not a sub off
another company.
