At a previous job we had licensed some software that was written in
TCL.. and even had an API for the system.  I can't recall the name of
the software at the moment, but it was very specialized so not cheap.
This was during the late 90s/early 2000s.

I have no idea if the company is still around of if they still sell the
software or if it's still tcl-based (my memory fails me).
