Indeed as sibling comment mentions there are Tcl fans out there. The guy who created redis has good things to say[0]. With a little evangelism it could maybe stage a comeback.

In addition, the entire Fossil front-end (the SCM used for hosting SQLite) is also written in Tcl, which makes it incredibly easy to edit and extend.
