+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+\fBTk_InitConsoleChannels\fR is invoked to create a set of console
+channels and install them as the standard channels. All I/O on these
+channels will be discarded until \fBTk_CreateConsoleWindow\fR is
+called to attach the console to a text widget.
+.PP
+This function is for use by shell applications based on Tk, like
+\fBwish\fR, on platforms which have no standard channels in graphical
+mode, like Win32.
+.PP
+The \fIinterp\fR argument is the interpreter in which to create and
+install the console channels.
+.PP
+\fBNOTE:\fR If this function is used it has to be called before the
+first call to \fBTcl_RegisterChannel\fR, directly, or indirectly
+through other channel functions. Because otherwise the standard
+channels will be already initialized to the system defaults, which will
+be nonsensical for the case \fBTk_InitConsoleChannels\fR is for.
