DESCRIPTION

22       The  tcl::transform::limitsize  package  provides  a command creating a
23       channel transformation which limits the number of characters which  can
24       be read from the channel. A generator for an artificial EOF.
25
26       The  internal  TclOO class implementing the transform handler is a sub-
27       class of the tcl::transform::core framework.
28

API

30       ::tcl::transform::limitsize chan max
31              This command creates a size limiting transformation  on  top  of
32              the channel chan and returns its handle.
33
34              max  is  the  number of bytes which can be read from the channel
35              before EOF is signaled by the transformation. Note that  popping
36              the transformation clears the EOF it generated as well.
