I would like to create a tclsh with application-specific extensions.
Take a look at the Tk application and the mainline for the "wish"
application. That's a standardly distributed extension which
demonstrates this.
This approach was used quite a bit in the early days of Tcl. It is
also used by many who want tcl not as the heart of their application,
but as a relatively invisible part of their application.
What you will tend to see is more people talking about dynamically
loaded all the extensions, due to the ease it makes to distribute one
small interpreter and a few extensions. In the old days, people would
"slice and dice" tcl and extensions into various iterations, and that
got old fast :wink:.
I am uncertain what your goal is, but you might take a peek at what is
going on with the tclkit community. Tclkit is a tcl interpreter along
with a few statically linked extensions. The wiki (http://
wiki.tcl.tk/ ) as well as the starkit google forum, are some good
sources of info on that alternative.
