Global variables defined in the Tcl library
The following global variables are defined or used by the
procedures in the Tcl library:
- auto_execs
- Used by auto_execok to record information
about whether particular commands exist as executable files.
- auto_index
- Used by auto_load to save the index
information read from disk.
- auto_noexec
- If set to any value, then unknown will not
attempt to auto-exec any commands.
- auto_noload
- If set to any value, then unknown will not
attempt to auto-load any commands.
- auto_path
- If set, then it must contain a valid Tcl list giving
directories to search during auto-load operations.
- env(TCL_LIBRARY)
- If set, then it specifies the
location of the directory containing library scripts (the value of
this variable will be returned by the command info library). If this
variable isn't set then a default value is used.
- env(TCLLIBPATH)
- If set, then it must contain a valid Tcl list giving
directories to search during auto-load operations. This variable is
only used if auto_path is not defined.
- unknown_active
- This variable is set by unknown to indicate that it is
active. It is used to detect errors where unknown recurses on itself
infinitely. The variable is unset before
unknown returns.
