[titledesc {Controlling TkCon console}]
[description]
[para]
This provides lots of useful control over a console:
[list_begin definitions]
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg attach] [arg interpreter]]
Attaches tkcon to the named interpreter.
The name must be that returned by [lb][cmd tk] [arg appname][rb] or a valid
path to a slave interpreter.
It's best to use this via the [arg {Console->Attach Console}] menu.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg buffer] [opt [arg size]]]
Sets or queries the allowed size of the console text widget in lines.
The text widget will automatically delete leading lines once this
number has been exceeded (read: this is the scroll buffer size).
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg bgerror] [opt "[arg msg] [arg errorInfo]"]]
Does bgerror stuff in the tkcon master interpreter.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg close] or [cmd tkcon] [arg destroy]]
Destroys this tkcon widget.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg congets]]
Behaves like the traditional Tcl gets, but instead of using stdin,
it uses the tkcon console window.
By default, tkcon replaces the standard gets with this command.
This behavior can be controlled by altering the [cmd ::tkcon::OPT(gets)]
parameter at startup.
This should not be called directly - instead rely on the overloaded
gets, which has support for the optional varName parameter.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg console] [arg args]]
Passes the args to the tkcon text widget (the console).
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg error]]
Pops up a dialog that gives the user a full trace of the
last error received in the tkcon console.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg find] [arg string]\
[opt "[arg -case] [arg TCL_BOOLEAN] [arg -regexp] [arg TCL_BOOLEAN]"]]
Highlights all instances of string in the console.
If the string is empty, it clears any previous highlighting.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg font] [opt [arg fontname]]]
Sets or returns the font used by tkcon text widgets.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg gets]]
Behaves like the traditional Tcl gets, but instead of needing
stdin, it pops a dialog box up for the user.
The overloaded gets has support for the optional varName parameter.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg getcommand]]
A variation of the congets method that requires a full
command to be input before returning.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg hide]]
Withdraw the tkcon display from the screen (make sure you
have a way to get it back).
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg history] [opt [arg -newline]]]
Displays the tkcon history in sourceable form.
If [arg -newline] is specified, it separates each command by
an extra newline.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg iconify]]
Iconifies the tkcon display.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg linelength] [opt [arg value]]]
Sets or displays the number that specifies the limit of long result lines.
True result is still captured in $_ (and 'puts $_' works).
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg load] [arg filename]]
Sources named file into the slave interpreter.
If no filename is given, it will attempt to call
[cmd tk_getOpenFile] to pop up the file select box.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg main] [opt "[arg arg] [arg arg] [arg ...]"]]
Passes the args to the main tkcon interpreter to be
evaluated and returns the result.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg master] [arg args]]
Passes the args to the master interpreter to be evaluated
and returns the result.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg new]]
Creates a new tkcon widget.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg resultfilter] [opt [arg command]]]
Specify a command to process the results before outputting it to the console
window. The command receives one argument (the result string) and the string
returned is placed in the console.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg save] [opt "[arg filename] [opt [arg type]]"]]
Saves the console buffer to the given filename.
If no filename is given, it will attempt to call
[cmd tk_getSaveFile] to pop up the file select box.
If no type is given, a dialog will ask you to specify
what portion of the text you want to save.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg set] [arg var] [opt [arg value]]]
Queries or sets a master interpreter variable.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg append] [arg var] [opt [arg value]]]
Like set, but uses append on the variable.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg lappend] [arg var] [opt [arg value]]]
Like set, but uses lappend on the variable.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg show] or [cmd tkcon] [arg deiconify]]
Redisplays tkcon on the screen.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg slave] [opt "[arg slavename] [opt [arg {arg arg ...}]]"]]
If called with no args, it returns the name of all the tkcon interpreters.
Otherwise given an interp name it passes the args to the named interpreter
to be evaluated and returns the result.
If no args are passed, then it returns the [lb][cmd tk] [arg appname][rb] of that
interpreter.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg title] [opt [arg title]]]
Sets or returns the title for tkcon.
[call [cmd tkcon] [arg version]]
Returns of version of tkcon.
