parameter

Name

parameter -- Manipulate parametes.

Synopsis

NoteWARNING
 

It is better to use the treeparameter command than the parameter. Future SpecTcl versions may deprecate or even eliminate the parameter command.

parameter [-new] name id [metdata]
parameter -list [-byid] [glob-pattern | -id id]

parameter -delete [name | -id id]

DESCRIPTION

Manipulates the parameter dictionary. The parameter dictionary is maintained in all ranks. Therefore this command is encapsulated in a CMPITclPackagedCommandAll. All operations work in all ranks. Since the histogramer maintains a reference to the parameter dictionary singleton it is able to see all of the parameters that are defined.
