Well, I've used both quite a lot, and in my (humble) opinion there is
only one good reason for using TCL, and that's Tk. I find Python
easier to learn, easier to read, much faster and much much more powerful.

If there was a similarly pretty GUI for python, I would wave goodbye
to TCL without shedding a tear. Of course, I haven't tried the SUIT
module yet...
