__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       Tcl_RecordAndEval - save command on history list before evaluating

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tcl.h>

       int
       Tcl_RecordAndEval(interp, cmd, flags)

ARGUMENTS

       Tcl_Interp *interp (in)		Tcl interpreter in which to evaluate command.

       const char *cmd (in)		Command (or sequence of commands) to execute.

       int flags (in)			An  OR'ed  combination	of  flag  bits.   TCL_NO_EVAL  means  record  the  command but do not evaluate it.
					TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL means evaluate the command at global level instead of the current stack level.
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       Tcl_RecordAndEval is invoked to record a command as an event on the history list and then execute it using Tcl_Eval (or	Tcl_GlobalEval	if
       the  TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL bit is set in flags).  It returns a completion code such as TCL_OK just like Tcl_Eval and it leaves information in the
       interpreter's result.  If you do not want the command recorded on the history list then you should invoke Tcl_Eval instead of Tcl_RecordAn-
       dEval.	Normally  Tcl_RecordAndEval is only called with top-level commands typed by the user, since the purpose of history is to allow the
       user to re-issue recently-invoked commands.  If the flags argument contains the TCL_NO_EVAL bit then the command is recorded without  being
       evaluated.

       Note  that  Tcl_RecordAndEval  has  been  largely replaced by the object-based procedure Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj.  That object-based procedure
       records and optionally executes a command held in a Tcl object instead of a string.
