NAME
tcl::chan::std - Standard I/O, unification of stdin and stdout
SYNOPSIS

package require tcl::chan::core ?1?

::tcl::chan::std

DESCRIPTION
The tcl::chan::std package provides a command creating a standard chan-
nel which unifies stdin and stdout into a single read- and writable
channel. The result is not seek-able, like the original standard chan-
nels.
The internal TclOO class implementing the channel handler is a sub-
class of the tcl::chan::core framework.
API
::tcl::chan::std
This command creates the std channel and returns its handle.
The channel is created only once, on the first call, and all fu-
ture calls simply return this handle.

bugs and other problems. Please report such in the category virtchan-
nel of the Tcllib Trackers [http://core.tcl.tk/tcllib/reportlist].
Please also report any ideas for enhancements you may have for either
package and/or documentation.
When proposing code changes, please provide unified diffs, i.e the out-
put of diff -u.
Note further that attachments are strongly preferred over inlined
patches. Attachments can be made by going to the Edit form of the
