wish (Windowing Shell) is a Tcl interpreter extended with Tk commands, [1] available for Unix-like operating systems supporting the X Window System, as well as macOS, Microsoft Windows, [2] [3] and Android. [4] It provides developers the ability to create GUI widgets using the Tk toolkit and the Tcl programming language. [5] [6]
Support for code comments is defined by each programming language. The features differ by language, but there are several common attributes that apply throughout. Most languages support multi-line block (a.k.a. stream) and/or single line comments. A block comment is delimited with text that marks the start and end of comment text. It can span ...
The Tcl programming language was created in the spring of 1988 by John Ousterhout while he was working at the University of California, Berkeley. [14] [15] Originally "born out of frustration", [11] according to the author, with programmers devising their own languages for extending electronic design automation (EDA) software and, more specifically, the VLSI design tool Magic, which was a ...
Block comments: PowerShell 2.0 supports block comments using <# and #> as delimiters. [ 80 ] New APIs : The new APIs range from handing more control over the PowerShell parser and runtime to the host, to creating and managing collection of Runspaces ( RunspacePools ) as well as the ability to create Restricted Runspaces which only allow a ...

In Linux, the file specified by interpreter can be executed if it has the execute rights and is one of the following: a native executable, such as an ELF binary; any kind of file for which an interpreter was registered via the binfmt_misc mechanism (such as for executing Microsoft .exe binaries using wine) another script starting with a shebang
Tcl, Perl, Rexx, and Python have graphics toolkits and can be used to code functions and procedures for shell scripts which pose a speed bottleneck (C, Fortran, assembly language &c are much faster still) and to add functionality not available in the shell language such as sockets and other connectivity functions, heavy-duty text processing ...
