Since the interview didn't go into your Tcl work I want to use this occasion to thank you for creating Jim Tcl. It is an excellent embedded programming language.

For those of you who are not aware of it take a look at http://jim.tcl.tk/index.html/doc/www/www/index.html. If you thought Tcl had to be big compared to Lua and others you will be pleasantly surprised, especially since it comes with UTF-8 support out of the box.

Indeed. And thank the core canonical-Tcl developers (past and present) for the inspiring C implementation, and for antirez having the good sense to realize what he was looking at and model his work on it.
