DESCRIPTION

24       The  tcl::chan::string  package  provides  a  command creating channels
25       which live purely in memory. They provide random-access, i.e. are seek‐
26       able.   In  contrast to the channels created by tcl::chan::memchan they
27       are read-only however, their content is provided at the  time  of  con‐
28       struction and immutable afterward.
29
30       Packages  related  to  this are tcl::chan::memchan and tcl::chan::vari‐
31       able.
32
33       The internal TclOO class implementing the channel  handler  is  a  sub-
34       class of the tcl::chan::events framework.

API

37       ::tcl::chan::string content
38              This  command  creates a new string channel and returns its han‐
39              dle. The channel provides random read-only access to the content
40              string.
