It is implemented as a separate interpreter with the -Tk toolkit loaded, and control over this interpreter is given through -the \fBconsole\fR command. -.PP -.TP -\fBconsole eval \fIscript\fR -Evaluate the \fIscript\fR argument as a Tcl script in the console -interpreter. The normal interpreter is accessed through the -\fBconsoleinterp\fR command in the console interpreter. -.TP -\fBconsole hide\fR -Hide the console window from view. Precisely equivalent to -withdrawing the \fB.\fR window in the console interpreter. -.TP -\fBconsole show\fR -Display the console window. Precisely equivalent to deiconifying the -\fB.\fR window in the console interpreter. -.TP -\fBconsole title \fR?\fIstring\fR? -Query or modify the title of the console window. If \fIstring\fR is -not specified, queries the title of the console window, and sets the -title of the console window to \fIstring\fR otherwise. Precisely -equivalent to using the \fBwm title\fI command in the console -interpreter. - -.SH "ACCESS TO THE MAIN INTERPRETER" -.PP -The \fBconsoleinterp\fR command in the console interpreter allows -scripts to be evaluated in the main interpreter. It supports two -subcommands: \fBeval\fR and \fBrecord\fR. -.PP -.TP -\fBconsoleinterp eval \fIscript\fR -Evaluates \fIscript\fR as a Tcl script at the global level in the main -interpreter. -.TP -\fBconsoleinterp record \fIscript\fR -Records and evaluates \fIscript\fR as a Tcl script at the global level -in the main interpreter as if \fIscript\fR had been typed in at the -console. - -.SH "ADDITIONAL TRAP CALLS" -.PP -There are several additional commands in the console interpreter that -are called in response to activity in the main interpreter. -.PP -Output to the console from the main interpreter via the stdout and -stderr channels is handled by invoking the \fBtkConsoleOutput\fR -command in the console interpreter with two arguments. The first -argument is the name of the channel being written to, and the second -argument is the string being written to the channel (after encoding -and end-of-line translation processing has been performed.) -.PP -When the \fB.\fR window of the main interpreter is destroyed, the -\fBtkConsoleExit\fR command in the console interpreter is called -(assuming the console interpreter has not already been deleted itself, -that is.) - -.SH KEYWORDS -console, Tk, interpreter, window, interactive, output channels - -.SH "SEE ALSO" -destroy(n), fconfigure(n), history(n), interp(n), puts(n), wm(n) -- cgit v0.12
