We're looking to use Safe-Tcl/Tk scripts in the sense of a
displayable document type, like HTML, or Postscript for
the WWW client we're building.

Safe-Tcl/Tk was originally conceived to support active email.
We'll be adding functionality to allow scripts controlled
access to user's files as well as remote servers.

We'll likely be distributing a Safe wish including our
extensions which could be used as an external viewer by
other WWW browsers.

There is a mailing list (safe-tcl-request@cs.utk.edu).
