"Tally is entirely written in C/C++/assembly + TDL (which is a DSL)."
Interesting! I once knew some people who wanted to create a "startup" to compete aginst Tally. It didn't go anywhere, but I thought it was an interesting idea.
"Apologies for the slow replies btw "
No worries.

Heh - every year we have dozens of Tally clones that come up. In fact, I know at least two people working in Tally who had, at some point in the past, developed products that were Tally competitors/clones.
However, to manage development, we have our own in-house SCM tool (which uses SVN as a backend). This tool is written entirely in python. Additionally, some small build utilities etc are also written in python. That's what I meant by "scripting needs".
Apologies for the slow replies btw - I haven't been checking HN regularly.
