NAME


xowish - Simple windowing shell containing NSF/XOTcl2
  interpreter






SYNOPSIS


xowish ?fileName?










DESCRIPTION



  

  
xowish is a shell-like application including Tcl and the XOTcl2 as
      well as the Tk toolkit. xowish creates a main window and, then,
      reads commands from its standard input or from fileName and
      evaluates them. If invoked without fileName, then it runs in REPL
      mode, reading commands from standard input. xowish will continue
      processing commands until all windows have been deleted or until
      end-of-file is reached on standard input.
    
xowish can be used like wish to make XOTcl2
        scripts directly invokable from the shell, by providing the following
        first line ("shebang") in the respective script:

  






	#! /usr/bin/env xowish






  

  
A (more portable) alternative is:






	#! /bin/sh
	# the next line restarts using xowish \
	    exec xowish "$0" "$@"
