* doc/wish.1: Implementation of TIPs 137/151.
* generic/tkMain.c (Tk_MainEx): Added recognition of the -encoding
* tests/main.test: command line option by Tk_MainEx()
and thus by wish, and any other program built on Tk_MainEx().
[Patch 800139].
This is a ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** only for those C programs
that embed Tcl and Tk, build on Tk_MainEx(), and make use of
Tk_MainEx's former ability to pass a leading "-encoding" option to
interactive shell operations.
