TKQML is a KQML application/addition to Tcl/Tk, which allows Tcl based systems to communicate easily with a powerful agent communication language.TKQML integrates an agent communication language, KQML (Knowledge Query Manipulation Language) into Tcl/Tk. TKQML can be used to build KQML-speaking agents that run within a TKQML shell. TKQML can also be used to bind together diverse applications into a distributed framework, using KQML as a communication language. Tcl’s embeddable nature allows one to easily add agent communication facilities to existing code. As such, TKQML can be used to enhance the functionality of new or existing systems built using a Tcl framework, by allowing easy integration with agent-based systems
