“… has fully incorporated both the Expect and TclX (Extended
Tcl) extensions into the latest version of TclPro.”

“The open source TclX and Expect extensions, now fully
incorporated in the newest version of TclPro, enable developers to
reduce the time for integrating applications. The Expect extension,
authored by Don Libes,extends the lifetime of legacy applications
by making it easy to add GUIs, automate and test interactive
programs, and integrate them with other systems and applications.
The TclX extension, written by Mark Diekhans and Karl Lehenbauer,
provides new interfaces to the native operating system, and adds
new programming constructs and other helpful utilities for
increased productivity in system administration and in developing
large-scale applications. Expect and TclX will continue to be
freely available from their authors as open source.”
