NAME

       Tcl_RecordAndEval - save command on history list before evaluating

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tcl.h>

       int
       Tcl_RecordAndEval(interp, cmd, flags)

ARGUMENTS

       Tcl_Interp   *interp    (in)      Tcl interpreter in which to evaluate command.

       CONST char   *cmd       (in)      Command (or sequence of commands) to execute.

       int          flags      (in)      An  OR'ed  combination  of  flag  bits.   TCL_NO_EVAL  means record the
                                         command but don't evaluate  it.   TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL  means  evaluate  the
                                         command at global level instead of the current stack level.

DESCRIPTION

       Tcl_RecordAndEval  is  invoked  to  record  a command as an event on the history list and then execute it
       using Tcl_Eval (or Tcl_GlobalEval if the TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL bit is set in flags).  It returns  a  completion
       code  such  as  TCL_OK  just like Tcl_Eval and it leaves information in the interpreter's result.  If you
       don't want the command recorded  on  the  history  list  then  you  should  invoke  Tcl_Eval  instead  of
       Tcl_RecordAndEval.   Normally Tcl_RecordAndEval is only called with top-level commands typed by the user,
       since the purpose of history is to allow the user to re-issue recently-invoked commands.   If  the  flags
       argument contains the TCL_NO_EVAL bit then the command is recorded without being evaluated.

       Note that Tcl_RecordAndEval has been largely replaced by the object-based procedure Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj.
       That  object-based  procedure records and optionally executes a command held in a Tcl object instead of a
       string.
