__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
textutil::repeat - Procedures to repeat strings.
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.2
package require textutil::repeat ?0.7?
::textutil::repeat::strRepeat text num
::textutil::repeat::blank num
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
The package textutil::repeat provides commands to generate long strings by repeating a shorter string many times.
The complete set of procedures is described below.
::textutil::repeat::strRepeat text num
This command returns a string containing the text repeated num times. The repetitions are joined without characters between them. A
value of num <= 0 causes the command to return an empty string.
Note: If the Tcl core the package is loaded in provides the command string repeat then this command will be implemented in its
terms, for maximum possible speed. Otherwise a fast implementation in Tcl will be used.
::textutil::repeat::blank num
A convenience command. Returns a string of num spaces.
