12'\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk
13'\" manual entries.
14'\"
15'\" .AP type name in/out ?indent?
16'\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure.
17'\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out",
18'\" or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg,
19'\" and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be
20'\" needed; use .AS below instead)
21'\"
22'\" .AS ?type? ?name?
23'\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and
24'\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed
25'\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used.
26'\"
27'\" .BS
28'\" Start box enclosure. From here until next .BE, everything will be
29'\" enclosed in one large box.
30'\"
31'\" .BE
32'\" End of box enclosure.
33'\"
34'\" .CS
35'\" Begin code excerpt.
36'\"
37'\" .CE
38'\" End code excerpt.
39'\"
40'\" .VS ?version? ?br?
41'\" Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts
42'\" of man pages. The first argument is ignored and used for recording
43'\" the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be
44'\" found and removed when they reach a certain age. If another argument
45'\" is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar.
46'\"
47'\" .VE
48'\" End of vertical sidebar.
49'\"
50'\" .DS
51'\" Begin an indented unfilled display.
52'\"
53'\" .DE
54'\" End of indented unfilled display.
55'\"
56'\" .SO
57'\" Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget. The
58'\" options follow on successive lines, in four columns separated
59'\" by tabs.
60'\"
61'\" .SE
62'\" End of list of standard options for a Tk widget.
63'\"
64'\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass
65'\" Start of description of a specific option. cmdName gives the
66'\" option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives
67'\" the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives
68'\" the option's class in the option database.
69'\"
70'\" .UL arg1 arg2
71'\" Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally.

249.BS
250'\" Note: do not modify the .SH NAME line immediately below!
251.SH NAME
252info \- Return information about the state of the Tcl interpreter
253.SH SYNOPSIS
254\fBinfo \fIoption \fR?\fIarg arg ...\fR?
255.BE
256
257.SH DESCRIPTION
258.PP
259This command provides information about various internals of the Tcl
260interpreter.
261The legal \fIoption\fR's (which may be abbreviated) are:
262.TP
263\fBinfo args \fIprocname\fR
264Returns a list containing the names of the arguments to procedure
265\fIprocname\fR, in order. \fIProcname\fR must be the name of a
266Tcl command procedure.
267.TP
268\fBinfo body \fIprocname\fR
269Returns the body of procedure \fIprocname\fR. \fIProcname\fR must be
270the name of a Tcl command procedure.
271.TP
272\fBinfo cmdcount\fR
273Returns a count of the total number of commands that have been invoked
274in this interpreter.
275.TP
276\fBinfo commands \fR?\fIpattern\fR?
277If \fIpattern\fR isn't specified,
278returns a list of names of all the Tcl commands in the current namespace,
279including both the built-in commands written in C and
280the command procedures defined using the \fBproc\fR command.
281If \fIpattern\fR is specified,
282only those names matching \fIpattern\fR are returned.
283Matching is determined using the same rules as for \fBstring match\fR.
284\fIpattern\fR can be a qualified name like \fBFoo::print*\fR.
285That is, it may specify a particular namespace
286using a sequence of namespace names separated by double colons (\fB::\fR),
287and may have pattern matching special characters
288at the end to specify a set of commands in that namespace.
289If \fIpattern\fR is a qualified name,
290the resulting list of command names has each one qualified with the name
291of the specified namespace.
292.TP
293\fBinfo complete \fIcommand\fR
294Returns 1 if \fIcommand\fR is a complete Tcl command in the sense of
295having no unclosed quotes, braces, brackets or array element names.
296If the command doesn't appear to be complete then 0 is returned.
297This command is typically used in line-oriented input environments
298to allow users to type in commands that span multiple lines; if the
299command isn't complete, the script can delay evaluating it until additional
300lines have been typed to complete the command.
301.TP
302\fBinfo default \fIprocname arg varname\fR
303\fIProcname\fR must be the name of a Tcl command procedure and \fIarg\fR
304must be the name of an argument to that procedure. If \fIarg\fR
305doesn't have a default value then the command returns \fB0\fR.
306Otherwise it returns \fB1\fR and places the default value of \fIarg\fR
307into variable \fIvarname\fR.
308.TP
309\fBinfo exists \fIvarName\fR
310Returns \fB1\fR if the variable named \fIvarName\fR exists in the
311current context (either as a global or local variable) and has been
312defined by being given a value, returns \fB0\fR otherwise.
313.VS 8.4
314.TP
315\fBinfo functions \fR?\fIpattern\fR?
316If \fIpattern\fR isn't specified, returns a list of all the math
317functions currently defined.
318If \fIpattern\fR is specified, only those functions whose name matches
319\fIpattern\fR are returned. Matching is determined using the same
320rules as for \fBstring match\fR.
321.VE
322.TP
323\fBinfo globals \fR?\fIpattern\fR?
324If \fIpattern\fR isn't specified, returns a list of all the names
325of currently-defined global variables.
326Global variables are variables in the global namespace.
327If \fIpattern\fR is specified, only those names matching \fIpattern\fR
328are returned. Matching is determined using the same rules as for
329\fBstring match\fR.
330.TP
331\fBinfo hostname\fR
332Returns the name of the computer on which this invocation is being
333executed.
334.VS
335Note that this name is not guaranteed to be the fully qualified domain
336name of the host. Where machines have several different names (as is
337common on systems with both TCP/IP (DNS) and NetBIOS-based networking
338installed,) it is the name that is suitable for TCP/IP networking that
339is returned.
340.VE
341.TP
342\fBinfo level\fR ?\fInumber\fR?
343If \fInumber\fR is not specified, this command returns a number
344giving the stack level of the invoking procedure, or 0 if the
345command is invoked at top-level. If \fInumber\fR is specified,
346then the result is a list consisting of the name and arguments for the
347procedure call at level \fInumber\fR on the stack. If \fInumber\fR
348is positive then it selects a particular stack level (1 refers
349to the top-most active procedure, 2 to the procedure it called, and
350so on); otherwise it gives a level relative to the current level
351(0 refers to the current procedure, -1 to its caller, and so on).
352See the \fBuplevel\fR command for more information on what stack
353levels mean.
354.TP
355\fBinfo library\fR
356Returns the name of the library directory in which standard Tcl
357scripts are stored.
358This is actually the value of the \fBtcl_library\fR
359variable and may be changed by setting \fBtcl_library\fR.
360See the \fBtclvars\fR manual entry for more information.
361.TP
362\fBinfo loaded \fR?\fIinterp\fR?
363Returns a list describing all of the packages that have been loaded into
364\fIinterp\fR with the \fBload\fR command.
365Each list element is a sub-list with two elements consisting of the
366name of the file from which the package was loaded and the name of
367the package.
368For statically-loaded packages the file name will be an empty string.
369If \fIinterp\fR is omitted then information is returned for all packages
370loaded in any interpreter in the process.
371To get a list of just the packages in the current interpreter, specify
372an empty string for the \fIinterp\fR argument.
373.TP
374\fBinfo locals \fR?\fIpattern\fR?
375If \fIpattern\fR isn't specified, returns a list of all the names
376of currently-defined local variables, including arguments to the
377current procedure, if any.
378Variables defined with the \fBglobal\fR, \fBupvar\fR and
379\fBvariable\fR commands will not be returned.
380If \fIpattern\fR is specified, only those names matching \fIpattern\fR
381are returned. Matching is determined using the same rules as for
382\fBstring match\fR.
383.TP
384\fBinfo nameofexecutable\fR
385Returns the full path name of the binary file from which the application
386was invoked. If Tcl was unable to identify the file, then an empty
387string is returned.
388.TP
389\fBinfo patchlevel\fR
390Returns the value of the global variable \fBtcl_patchLevel\fR; see
391the \fBtclvars\fR manual entry for more information.
392.TP
393\fBinfo procs \fR?\fIpattern\fR?
394If \fIpattern\fR isn't specified, returns a list of all the
395names of Tcl command procedures in the current namespace.
396If \fIpattern\fR is specified,
397only those procedure names in the current namespace
398matching \fIpattern\fR are returned.
399Matching is determined using the same rules as for
400\fBstring match\fR.
401If \fIpattern\fR contains any namespace separators, they are used to
402select a namespace relative to the current namespace (or relative to
403the global namespace if \fIpattern\fR starts with \fB::\fR) to match
404within; the matching pattern is taken to be the part after the last
405namespace separator.
406.TP
407\fBinfo script\fR ?\fIfilename\fR?
408If a Tcl script file is currently being evaluated (i.e. there is a
409call to \fBTcl_EvalFile\fR active or there is an active invocation
410of the \fBsource\fR command), then this command returns the name
411of the innermost file being processed. If \fIfilename\fR is specified,
412then the return value of this command will be modified for the
413duration of the active invocation to return that name. This is
414useful in virtual file system applications.
415Otherwise the command returns an empty string.
416.TP
417\fBinfo sharedlibextension\fR
418Returns the extension used on this platform for the names of files
419containing shared libraries (for example, \fB.so\fR under Solaris).
420If shared libraries aren't supported on this platform then an empty
421string is returned.
422.TP
423\fBinfo tclversion\fR
424Returns the value of the global variable \fBtcl_version\fR; see
425the \fBtclvars\fR manual entry for more information.
426.TP
427\fBinfo vars\fR ?\fIpattern\fR?
428If \fIpattern\fR isn't specified,
429returns a list of all the names of currently-visible variables.
430This includes locals and currently-visible globals.
431If \fIpattern\fR is specified, only those names matching \fIpattern\fR
432are returned. Matching is determined using the same rules as for
433\fBstring match\fR.
434\fIpattern\fR can be a qualified name like \fBFoo::option*\fR.
435That is, it may specify a particular namespace
436using a sequence of namespace names separated by double colons (\fB::\fR),
437and may have pattern matching special characters
438at the end to specify a set of variables in that namespace.
439If \fIpattern\fR is a qualified name,
440the resulting list of variable names
441has each matching namespace variable qualified with the name
442of its namespace.
443Note that a currently-visible variable may not yet "exist" if it has not
444been set (e.g. a variable declared but not set by \fBvariable\fR).
445.SH EXAMPLE
446This command prints out a procedure suitable for saving in a Tcl
447script:
448.CS
449proc printProc {procName} {
450 set result [list proc $procName]
451 set formals {}
452 foreach var [\fBinfo args\fR $procName] {
453 if {[\fBinfo default\fR $procName $var def]} {
454 lappend formals [list $var $def]
455 } else {
456 # Still need the list-quoting because variable
457 # names may properly contain spaces.
458 lappend formals [list $var]
459 }
460 }
461 puts [lappend result $formals [\fBinfo body\fR $procName]]
