It implements a large subset of Tcl and adds new features like +references with garbage collection, closures, built-in Object Oriented +Programming system, Functional Programming commands, first-class arrays and UTF- +8 support. All this with a binary size of about 100-200kB (depending upon +selected options). + +The Jim core is very stable. Jim passes over 3000 unit tests and many Tcl +programs run unmodified. Jim is highly modular with the possiblity to configure +many components as loadable modules, or omitted entirely. A number of extensions +are included with Jim which may be built as loadable modules. |
