Hi,

I need to make an interactive application where in the user can enter CLIs in a telnet-applet. These CLIs are to be forwarded to network devices i.e. the server where the application is running should not try to parse the CLI.

The application should forward these CLIs to the devices get the response back from the devices and show it on the applet. I have the communication between my application and the device working.

I was wondering if TCL is the right tool to implement the virtual console that I am writing?

Any inputs will be hightly appreciated.

Difficult to say. If you've got a lot of existing code, you might find it easiest to implement a basic console in whatever language you're already using.

If you do decide to take the Tcl/Tk route, I'll point you to the Tcl'ers Wiki ( where the page "A minimal console," describes some strategies for implementing consoles in Tcl. - Ken Jones, President
