So I am working on a daemon that will be written in Ada and controlled by a slew of small simple commands. I am planning on controlling it through a Tcl/Tk GUI. I am wondering if this is a good design decision? Has anyone done somethign like this? Tcl is not going to be as reliable as Ada but if the code base is small (and Tcl was designed for small code bases) then I should be okay right? There is an Ada binding: http://tcladashell.sourceforge.net/index.htm Am I walking into any pitfalls here... Any feedback woudl be appreciated-Patrick
