The main advantage of the Tcl/Tk system on OS/2 has been the Tk widget toolkit and portability on systems where REXX is not common.
Tcl is the Tool Command Language and Tk is the windowing Toolkit for Tcl. Originally designed as a macro- and initialization-file language for people's applications, the example applications tclsh (Tcl Shell) and wish (Windowing Shell, Tk) are nowadays most often used to run complete, portable script-applications. Tcl/Tk is officially supported on Unix and the X Window System, Apple Macintosh and MS Windows; user-contributed ports exist for e.g. VMS and, of course, OS/2.
