LONG before
TCL is reportedly working on a prototype smartphone

The Tcl programming language was created in the spring of 1988 by John Ousterhout while working at the University of California, Berkeley.[12][13] Originally "born out of frustration",[9] according to the author, with programmers devising their own languages intended to be embedded into applications, Tcl gained acceptance on its own. Ousterhout was awarded the ACM Software System Award in 1997 for Tcl/Tk.​
The command component is Tcl, while the X11 graphics package is Tk used for all kinds of insturmentation and realtime monitoring.​
While
The first smartphone, created by IBM, was invented in 1992 and released for purchase in 1994
clearly Tcl predated this by four years​
