In Tcl, if you're working in interactive mode you can abbreviate the commands you type in, as long as your commands remain unique. So instead of puts you can write put or even pu ... but if you try to run just the p command you'll get

% p hello
ambiguous command name "p": package pid proc puts pwd
%

If you're running from a a file of Tcl commands, though, you need to specify the command name in full - puts.

Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
