CORE LANGUAGE FEATURES - Proc default arguments - Traces - [static] command CORE COMMANDS - All the missing standard core commands not related to I/O, namespaces, ... - [tail] command for programmer-driven tail recursion optimization - The current [expr] needs a lot of work, expecially operators && and || are not lazy. Math functions are not present but probably will never be added as expr functions, but as Tcl commands, like [sin], [cos] and so on. - [onleave] command, executing something as soon as the current procedure returns. With no arguments it returns the script set, with one appends the onleave script. There should be a way to reset. - [proc] without arguments may return a list of all the procedures (no C commands). While with a single argument (the name of a proc) may return [list $args $statics $body]. OTHER COMMANDS NOT IN TCL BUT THAT SHOULD BE IN JIM - Set commands: [lunion], [lintersect], and [ldifference] EXTENSIONS - Regexp extension - OOP system SPEED OPTIMIZATIONS - Find a way to avoid interpolation/reparsing in "foo($bar)" tokens. See the "sieve" and "ary" bench performances, result of this problem. (to compare with sieve_dict is also useful.) - Many other possible things, including better literal sharing. IMPLEMENTATION ISSUES - Objects lazy free. - Rewrite all the commands accepting a set of options to use Jim_GetEnum(). ERROR MESSAGES - Display the procedure relative file number where the error happened. Like: In procedure 'check' line 11, called at file "test.tcl", line 1024 instead of just: In procedure 'check' called at file "test.tcl", line 1024 REFERENCES SYSTEM - Unify ref/getref/setref/collect/finalize under an unique [ref] command. - Add a 'call' attribute to references in order to call a given procedure if the name of a reference is used as command name. API FUNCTIONS TO EXPORT - Jim_FormatString() RANDOM THINGS TO DO ASAP - .jimrc loading, using the ENV variable
