Are you kidding? Tk is OK (even great, maybe? I have next to no
experience with it.) But Tcl? If you intend to make anything
useful, you should use some Scheme version instead:
Scheme Tk or Guile (the GNU scripting language under development)
or OScheme, which a Scheme with an Object system based on prototypes (If I
only had more time to check that one out!).

To get to know the power of Scheme, read Abelson/Sussman's `Structure and
Interpretation of Computer Programs', if you haven't already. That's such
a great book, I should have read it two years earlier.
Tcl sucks. Check out
