Nitpick: it is Tcl, not TCL, just like how Ada is not ADA.

Following the Wikipedia citation will point people here:

https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/Tcl+vs%2E+TCL

Which gets into the syntactical preference people developed over time.

The Tool Command Language acronym allusion is rather distinct from a popular "Tcl" colloquialism for the "tickle" project. From my perspective Tcl is a TCL, but not all TCLs are necessarily Tcl nor include a specific extension package.

Have a glorious day friend =3

When I say it out loud, I say T-C-L, too, but I write it as Tcl.

You have a nice day too! =3
