tell(n)
okay bestie, welcome to tell(n) from the Tcl Built-In Commands manual. this one is short, sweet, and lowkey a legacy baddie, because it's literally been superceded. but we still respect the journey. β¨
β¨ NAME β¨
tellβ Return current access position for an open channel π
π SYNOPSIS π
tell channel
that's it. no extra flags, no secret menu, just channel doing its thing. π
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the tea, bestie: the tell command has been superceded by the chan tell command. superceded, not deleted β but yeah, it's giving "the old one." π
the chan tell command supports the same syntax and options. same tell channel shape, same options energy. so if u were reaching for tell, the manual is politely pointing u toward chan tell. no cap. π«Ά
π SEE ALSO π
chan(n)β go look at the glow-up. it's right there. π
sending u off with Tcl 8.1, page tell(n), and no date in sight β just iconic built-in energy. bye bestie π
