-double Tcl objects from C code.
-\fBTcl_NewDoubleObj\fR and \fBTcl_SetDoubleObj\fR
-will create a new object of double type
-or modify an existing object to have double type.
-Both of these procedures set the object to have the
-double-precision floating-point value given by \fIdoubleValue\fR;
-\fBTcl_NewDoubleObj\fR returns a pointer to a newly created object
-with reference count zero.
-Both procedures set the object's type to be double
-and assign the double value to the object's internal representation
-\fIdoubleValue\fR member.
-\fBTcl_SetDoubleObj\fR invalidates any old string representation
-and, if the object is not already a double object,
-frees any old internal representation.
+These procedures are used to create, modify, and read Tcl objects that
+hold double-precision floating-point values.
.PP
-\fBTcl_GetDoubleFromObj\fR attempts to return a double value
-from the Tcl object \fIobjPtr\fR.
-If the object is not already a double object,
-it will attempt to convert it to one.
-If an error occurs during conversion, it returns \fBTCL_ERROR\fR
-and leaves an error message in the interpreter's result object
-unless \fIinterp\fR is NULL.
-Otherwise, it returns \fBTCL_OK\fR and stores the double value
-in the address given by \fIdoublePtr\fR.
-If the object is not already a double object,
-the conversion will free any old internal representation.
-
+\fBTcl_NewDoubleObj\fR creates and returns a new Tcl object initialized to
+the double value \fIdoubleValue\fR. The returned Tcl object is unshared.
+.PP
+\fBTcl_SetDoubleObj\fR sets the value of an existing Tcl object pointed to
+by \fIobjPtr\fR to the double value \fIdoubleValue\fR. The \fIobjPtr\fR
+argument must point to an unshared Tcl object. Any attempt to set the value
+of a shared Tcl object violates Tcl's copy-on-write policy. Any existing
+string representation or internal representation in the unshared Tcl object
+will be freed as a consequence of setting the new value.
+.PP
+\fBTcl_GetDoubleFromObj\fR attempts to retreive a double value from the
+Tcl object \fIobjPtr\fR. If the attempt succeeds, then \fBTCL_OK\fR is
+returned, and the double value is written to the storage pointed to by
