NAME

     Tk_InitConsoleChannels - Install  the  console  channels  as
     standard channels

SYNOPSIS

     #include <tk.h>

     Tk_InitConsoleChannels(interp)

ARGUMENTS

     Tcl_Interp *interp (in)          Interpreter  in  which  the
                                      console     channels    are
                                      created.

DESCRIPTION

     Tk_InitConsoleChannels is invoked to create a set of console
     channels  and install them as the standard channels. All I/O
     on    these    channels    will    be    discarded     until
     Tk_CreateConsoleWindow  is called to attach the console to a
     text widget.

     This function is for use by shell applications based on  Tk,
     like  wish,  on platforms which have no standard channels in
     graphical mode, like Win32.

     The interp argument is the interpreter in  which  to  create
     and install the console channels.

     NOTE: If this function is used it has to  be  called  before
     the   first   call   to  Tcl_RegisterChannel,  directly,  or
     indirectly through other channel functions.  Because  other-
     wise  the  standard  channels will be already initialized to
     the system defaults, which will be nonsensical for the  case
     Tk_InitConsoleChannels is for.
