DESCRIPTION

24       The  tcl::chan::memchan  package  provides  a command creating channels
25       which live purely in memory. They provide random-access, i.e. are seek‐
26       able.  This is equivalent to the memchan channels provided by the pack‐
27       age Memchan, except that this is written in pure Tcl,  not  C.  On  the
28       other  hand,  Memchan  is  usable with Tcl 8.4 and before, whereas this
29       package requires Tcl 8.5 or higher, and TclOO.
30
31       Packages related to this are tcl::chan::string and tcl::chan::variable.
32
33       The internal TclOO class implementing the channel  handler  is  a  sub-
34       class of the tcl::chan::events framework.

API

39              dle.
