This provides lots of useful control over a console:
 
 tkcon attachinterpreter Attaches tkcon to the named interpreter.  The name must be that
returned by [tk appname]or a valid path to a slave
interpreter.  It's best to use this via theConsole->Attach
Consolemenu. tkcon buffer?size? Sets or queries the allowed size of the console text widget in lines.
The text widget will automatically delete leading lines once this number
has been exceeded (read: this is the scroll buffer size).
 tkcon bgerror?msg errorInfo? Does bgerror stuff in the tkcon master interpreter.
 tkcon closeortkcon destroy Destroys this tkcon widget.
 tkcon congets Behaves like the traditional Tcl gets, but instead of
usingstdin, it uses the tkcon console window.  By default,
tkcon replaces the standard gets with this command.  This behavior can be
controlled by altering the::tkcon::OPT(gets)parameter at
startup.  This should not be called directly - instead rely on the
overloadedgets, which has support for the optional varName
parameter. tkcon consoleargs Passes the args to the tkcon text widget (the console).
 tkcon error Pops up a dialog that gives the user a full trace of the last error
received in the tkcon console.
 tkcon findstring ?-case TCL_BOOLEAN
-regexp TCL_BOOLEAN? Highlights all instances of string in the console.  If the string
is empty, it clears any previous highlighting.
 tkcon font?fontname? Sets or returns the font used by tkcon text widgets.
 tkcon gets Behaves like the traditional Tcl gets, but instead of
needingstdin, it pops a dialog box up for the user.  The
overloadedgetshas support for the optional varName parameter. tkcon getcommand A variation of the congetsmethod that requires a
full command to be input before returning. tkcon hide Withdraw the tkcon display from the screen (make sure you have
a way to get it back).
 tkcon history?-newline? Displays the tkcon history in sourceable form.  If -newline is
specified, it separates each command by an extra newline.
 tkcon iconify Iconifies the tkcon display.
 tkcon linelength?value? Sets or displays the number that specifies the limit of long result lines.
True result is still captured in $_ (and 'puts $_' works).
 tkcon loadfilename Sources named file into the slave interpreter.  If no filename is
given, it will attempt to call tk_getOpenFileto pop up the
file select box. tkcon main?arg arg ...? Passes the args to the main tkcon interpreter to be evaluated and
returns the result.
 tkcon masterargs Passes the args to the master interpreter to be evaluated and
returns the result.
 tkcon new Creates a new tkcon widget.
 tkcon resultfilter?command? Specify a command to process the results before outputting it to the
console window.  The command receives one argument (the result string) and
the string returned is placed in the console.
 tkcon save?filename ?type?? Saves the console buffer to the given filename.  If no filename is
given, it will attempt to call tk_getSaveFileto pop up the
file select box.  If no type is given, a dialog will ask you to specify
what portion of the text you want to save. tkcon setvar ?value? Queries or sets a master interpreter variable.
 tkcon appendvar ?value? Like set, but uses appendon the variable. tkcon lappendvar ?value? Like set, but uses lappendon the variable. tkcon showortkcon deiconify Redisplays tkcon on the screen.
 tkcon slave?slavename ?arg arg ...?? If called with no args, it returns the name of all the tkcon
interpreters.  Otherwise given an interp name it passes the args
to the named interpreter to be evaluated and returns the result.
If no args are passed, then it returns the [tk appname]of that interpreter. tkcon title?title? Sets or returns the title for tkcon.
 tkcon version Returns of version of tkcon.
