Comment on Develop Cross-Platform CLI and GUI Tools with Tcl/Tk

Comments

I take issue with the only 100 MB footprint, that is still pretty big when consider fasm, tcc and rebol are all closer to 1 meg.

1MB memory usage for a GUI app with a bunch of packages installed?

If you are talking about the size of the TCL/Tk static binaries they are a few MB to judge by the zipkit downloads linked to.

Yeah, 100mb is not a bragging point. That's the size of a full web browser engine

its common for a single browser tab to use more than that.
