[comment {-*- tcl -*- doctools manpage}] [manpage_begin term::ansi::code::ctrl n 0.1] [copyright {2006-2008 Andreas Kupries }] [moddesc {Terminal control}] [titledesc {ANSI control sequences}] [category {Terminal control}] [require Tcl 8.4] [require term::ansi::code [opt 0.1]] [require term::ansi::code::ctrl [opt 0.1.1]] [description] This package provides symbolic names for the ANSI control sequences. For each sequence a single command is provided which returns the sequence as its result. None of the commands of this package write to a channel; that is handled by higher level packages, like [package term::ansi::send]. [section API] [subsection Introspection] [list_begin definitions] [call [cmd ::term::ansi::code::ctrl::names]] This command is for introspection. It returns as its result a list containing the names of all attribute commands. [call [cmd ::term::ansi::code::ctrl::import] [opt [arg ns]] [opt [arg arg]...]] This command imports some or all attribute commands into the namespace [arg ns]. This is by default the namespace [emph ctrl]. Note that this is relative namespace name, placing the imported command into a child of the current namespace. By default all commands are imported, this can howver be restricted by listing the names of the wanted commands after the namespace argument.
