Learn X in Y minutes – Tcl

You can have unicode procedure names, if that was your fancy.

Note: If you read that post and think, "Wow, Perl requires a lot of setup for unicode and TCP doesn't require nearly as much" without understanding the specifics of why each step is there, and how TCL handles the same issue, you are likely underthinking the issue.

  proc with {file as name block} {
    uplevel 1 [list set $name $file]
    uplevel 1 [list eval $block]
    uplevel 1 [list close $file]
  }
  
  with [open foo.txt w] as file {
    puts $file "Hello, World!"
  }

    proc withOpenFile {filename channelVar script} {
        upvar 1 $channelVar chan
        set chan [open $filename]
        catch {
            uplevel 1 $script
        } result options
        close $chan
        return -options $options $result
    }

So: What language(s) did you have in mind that do this right?

This is called apartment model [0] threading.
