I only mentioned Tcl because on Windows at least it's trivial to wrap up the 
Tcl code into a no-install stand-alone .exe.  I don't know how OSX handles 
what Linux calls repositories, but installing the Tcl interpreter on modern 
Linux is pretty straightforward. (Pretty straightforward on Windows once you 
track it down, too, but that's an extra step people might not want to go for 
if they just want to try your code once.)

Does OSX have something like Yum to which people submit that stuff, or is it 
more like Windows where you have to track down where the software is?
