::tkcon::COLOR(disabled)

color,proc +

::tkcon::COLOR(proc)

The foreground color of a recognized proc, if command highlighting is on. Defaults to dark green. -

color,var +

::tkcon::COLOR(var)

The background color of a recognized var, if command highlighting is on. Defaults to pink. -

color,prompt +

::tkcon::COLOR(prompt)

The foreground color of the prompt as output in the console. Defaults to brown. -

color,stdin +

::tkcon::COLOR(stdin)

The foreground color of the stdin for the console. Defaults to black. -

color,stdout +

::tkcon::COLOR(stdout)

The foreground color of the stdout as output in the console. Defaults to blue. -

color,stderr +

::tkcon::COLOR(stderr)

The foreground color of stderr as output in the console. Defaults to red.

autoload +

::tkcon::OPT(autoload)

Packages to automatically load into the slave interpreter (ie - 'Tk'). This is a list. Defaults to {} (none). -

blinktime +

::tkcon::OPT(blinktime)

The amount of time (in millisecs) that braced sections should blink for. Defaults to 500 (.5 secs), must be at least 100. -

blinkrange +

::tkcon::OPT(blinkrange)

Whether to blink the entire range for electric brace matching or to just blink the actual matching braces (respectively 1 or 0, defaults to 1). -

buffer +

::tkcon::OPT(buffer)

The size of the console scroll buffer (in lines). Defaults to 512. -

calcmode +

::tkcon::OPT(calcmode)

Whether to allow expr commands to be run at the command line without prefixing them with expr (just a convenience). -

cols +

::tkcon::OPT(cols)

Number of columns for the console to start out with. Defaults to 80. -

dead +

::tkcon::OPT(dead)

What to do with dead connected interpreters. If dead is leave, TkCon automatically exits the dead interpreter. If dead is ignore then it remains attached waiting for the interpreter to reappear. Otherwise TkCon will prompt you. -

font +

::tkcon::OPT(exec) +

This corresponds to the -exec option above + +

::tkcon::OPT(font)

Font to use for tkcon text widgets (also specified with -font). Defaults to the system default, or a fixed width equivalent. -

history +

::tkcon::OPT(history)

The size of the history list to keep. Defaults to 48. -

hoterrors +

::tkcon::OPT(hoterrors)

Whether hot errors are enabled or not. When enabled, errors that are returned to the console are marked with a link to the error info that will pop up in an minimal editor. This requires more memory because each error that occurs will maintain bindings for this feature, as long as the error is in the text widget. Defaults to on. -

library +

::tkcon::OPT(library)

The path to any tcl library directories (these are appended to the auto_path when the after the resource file is loaded in). -

lightbrace +

::tkcon::OPT(lightbrace)

Whether to use the brace highlighting feature or not (respectively 1 or 0, defaults to 1). -

lightcmd +

::tkcon::OPT(lightcmd)

Whether to use the command highlighting feature or not (respectively 1 or 0, defaults to 1). -

maineval +

::tkcon::OPT(maineval)

A tcl script to execute in the main interpreter after the slave interpreter is created and the user interface is initialized. -

nontcl +

::tkcon::OPT(maxmenu) +

A number that specifies the maximum number of packages to show +vertically in the Interp->Packages menu before breaking into +another column. Defaults to 15. + +

::tkcon::OPT(nontcl)

For those who might be using non-Tcl based Tk attachments, set this to 1. It prevents TkCon from trying to evaluate its own Tcl code in an attached interpreter. Also see my notes for non-Tcl based Tk interpreters. -

prompt1 +

::tkcon::OPT(prompt1)

Like tcl_prompt1, except it doesn't require you use 'puts'. No equivalent for tcl_prompt2 is available (it's unnecessary IMHO).
Defaults to {([file tail [pwd]]) [history nextid] % }. -

rcfile -

Name of the resource file. $env(HOME) is prepended to -this. Defaults to .tkconrc on Unix and tkcon.cfg -otherwise. - -
