NAME
     xowish - Simple windowing shell containing NSF/XOTcl2 interpreter

SYNOPSIS
     xowish ?fileName?

________________________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION
     xowish ?fileName?
	    xowish  is	a shell-like application including Tcl and the XOTcl2 as
	    well as the Tk toolkit. xowish creates  a  main  window  and,  then,
	    reads  commands  from its standard input or from fileName and evalu-
	    ates them.	If invoked without fileName, then it runs in REPL  mode,
	    reading  commands from standard input. xowish will continue process-
	    ing commands until all windows have been deleted  or  until  end-of-
	    file is reached on standard input.

	    xowish can be used like wish to make XOTcl2 scripts directly invoca-
	    ble  from  the  shell,  by providing the following first line ("she-
	    bang") in the respective script:

	      #! /usr/bin/env xowish

	    A (more portable) alternative is:

	      #! /bin/sh
	      # the next line restarts using xowish \
		  exec xowish "$0" "$@"
