No, for the most part. Python's so wonderful that it will immediately and correctly identify the "false friends" you happen to type.
For the most part. If you are sufficiently steeped in Tcl, you might find it hard to remember powerful Python idioms--that dictionaries are first-class objects perfectly suitable for passing, how to make use of the different quoting syntaxes, that it's easy to define your own Exceptions and Classes, and so on. You'll do fine. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
