Ratcl aims to become the successor of Mk4tcl and OOMK, with Vlerq replacing the Metakit C++ library, eventually. The database file format remains compatible:

Ratcl includes a range of relational algebra and set operators to manipulate structured datasets. These operators use a functional and non-procedural programming style, and reduce the need to write loops to find, collect, and re-arrange data.

All data can be treated as being in memory and used with regular Tcl commands, even though that data can reside in one or more platform-independent datafiles.
