[MACTCL] Tcl Objective-C

There's no current effort to link Tcl/Tk to the Cocoa frameworks as far
as I know of--Tcl/TkAqua is built on Carbon--but a quick Google of "Tcl
Objective-C" turns up all kinds of links, mostly five to ten years old.
Back in the 1990s there seems to have been a serious effort by some
developers to connect Tcl and Objective-C, though this dates back to the
days of NeXT. It looks like there still might be some work going on with
GnuStep on Linux, but nothing on the Mac.

While I know nothing of the technical issues involved, a model for this
effort might be PyObjC--the Python-Objective C bridge: this does indeed
let you use Interface Builder with Python apps. That project also dates
back at least a decade to NeXTStep.
