NAME
       xotclsh - Simple shell containing NSF/XOTcl2 interpreter

SYNOPSIS
       xotclsh ?fileName?

______________________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION
       xotclsh ?fileName?
              xotclsh is a shell-like application that reads XOTcl2 and Tcl
              commands from its standard input or from fileName and evaluates
              them.  If invoked without fileName, then it runs in REPL mode,
              reading commands from standard input and printing command
              results and error messages to standard output.  It runs until
              the exit command is invoked or until it reaches end-of-file on
              its standard input.

              xotclsh can be used like tclsh to make XOTcl2 scripts directly
              invokable from the shell, by providing the following first line
              ("shebang") in the respective script:
              #! /usr/bin/env xotclsh

              A (more portable) alternative is:
              #! /bin/sh
              # the next line restarts using xotclsh \
              exec xotclsh "$0" "$@"
