Hi.

My recollection is that TCL does command substitution when it encounters [ ... ] so perhaps a test command needs to be used within the brackets (which may look very strange to shell scriptors).

Best wishes ... cheers, drl

NAME
Blt_TreeNodeId - Returns the node serial number. SYNOPSIS
#include <bltTree.h> unsigned int Blt_TreeNodeId(node) ARGUMENTS
Blt_TreeNode node (in) Node whose ID is to be returned. _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
This procedure returns the node serial number. The node serial number is useful for programs that export the tree data object to the Tcl programming level.

The serial number of the root node for example is always 0. RETURNS

The following example prints the ID of a node. printf("root ID is %s ", Blt_TreeNodeId(node)); KEYWORDS
Tcl_TreeCreateNode, Tcl_TreeDeleteNode BLT
