13.33.53 Tcl command documentation conventions
The following table shows the typographical conventions used for the Tcl command syntax.
Syntax Notation | Description |
|---|---|
command - argument | Commands and arguments appear in Courier New typeface. |
variable | Variables appear in blue, italic Courier New typeface. You must substitute an appropriate value for the variable. |
[-argumentvalue] [variable]+ | Optional arguments begin and end with a square bracket with one exception: if the square bracket is followed by a plus sign (+), then users must specify at least one argument. The plus sign (+) indicates that items within the square brackets can be repeated. Do not enter the plus sign character. |
Note: Note: All Tcl commands are case sensitive. However, their arguments are not.
