I have been looking at Python and Tcl to possibly embed in a hypertext
engine that I am revamping. I have been using a Modula 2 like language
that I developed back in 1987. But, it is a bit too low-level, and I
would like to use a more advanced language this time around.
I had read articles about Icon years ago, but had forgotten about it
until someone mentioned it recently. I like the language, but I don't
see any notes on extending it to use my APIs nor any information about
embedding it within my application. Also, I don't see any license
statement as to whether I could use it.
Do you have any information that could help me?
Thank you.
