Tip of the day - section

[ap]

Hi,

I was reading Tip of the day - section in the forum and i have few questions.
what's the purpose to have proc eventloop, proc pp, proc pv, proc pn, proc indent -> http://forum.egghelp.org/viewtopic.php? ... c&start=45

and also proc wordwrap. I mean how to use them?

I'll appreciate of someone will explain with few small examples please?


thanks

The eventloop procedure allows you to execute tcl commands with immediate full error reporting. For example:

// This is an invalid command executed before eventloop
% set bla [string len]
wrong # args: should be "string length string"

// This is an invalid command executed after eventloop
%eventloop
Type "exit" to exit the event loop
% set bla [string len]
wrong # args: should be "string length string"
while executing
"string len"

As for proc pp, proc pv, proc pn and proc indent:

pp - print proc
pv - print variable
pn - print namespace (with procs, variables and proper indentation)
indent - apply indentation based on open/close braces

You can test them, for example:

% proc bla {a b c} {
set a [expr {$b+$c}]
}
% pp bla
proc bla {a b c} {
set a [expr {$b+$c}]
}
