Great.

I could send you my tcl code to provide safe interpreting of articles.
It uses subst, replaces <+ +> to [] and (which actually works a bit
different than should, but ... works :). It uses safe interpreters, then
removes almost every command (except I suppose 3 commands) and adds only
ones defined in ::eval namespace of the originating interpreter.

What wonders me more is availibility to hack through safe interpreter.
Let's say my interp only allows me to use my proc:

proc cmd_test {args} {
    hputs [join $args "<BR>\n"]
}

What are the chances of someone executing something else than cmd_test in
the safe interpreter... (mostly exec command)

Not me ;-)

I'm currently working on testing mod_dtcl :P
