NAME

       xotclsh - Simple shell containing NSF/XOTcl2 interpreter

SYNOPSIS

       xotclsh ?fileName?

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       xotclsh ?fileName?
              xotclsh  is a shell-like application that reads XOTcl2 and Tcl 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 and printing command results and error messages to standard output.
              It runs until the exit command is invoked or until it reaches end-of-file on its standard input.

              xotclsh can be used like tclsh to make XOTcl2  scripts  directly  invokable  from  the  shell,  by
              providing the following first line ("shebang") in the respective script:

                #! /usr/bin/env xotclsh

              A (more portable) alternative is:

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