The TclShell class, derived from Edit,
is a top-level window that provides an interface to the Tcl
interpreter.
The help window
gives additional information.
You may create an instance of the TclShell class as follows:
::tycho::view TclShell
The -text option specifies a welcome message. For example,
::tycho::view TclShell {-text "A fresh Tcl console\n"}
The -master option,
if given a non-zero value, specifies that this is
a "master" console. Closing a master console will close the entire
application (after requesting confirmation).
Moreover, the most recently created TclShell window that is designated
master will capture standard output
generated by the Tcl puts command, unless
that output is redirected to a file.
There are a large number of public methods for TclShell.
See the class documentation.
