read

read(n) 						       Tcl Built-In Commands							   read(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       read - Read from a channel

SYNOPSIS

       read ?-nonewline? channelId

       read channelId numChars
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       In  the first form, the read command reads all of the data from channelId up to the end of the file.  If the -nonewline switch is specified
       then the last character of the file is discarded if it is a newline.  In the second form, the extra argument specifies how many	characters |
       to  read.  Exactly that many characters will be read and returned, unless there are fewer than numChars left in the file;  in this case all |
       the remaining characters are returned.  If the channel is configured to use a multi-byte encoding, then the number of characters  read  may |
       not be the same as the number of bytes read.												   |

       If  channelId is in nonblocking mode, the command may not read as many characters as requested: once all available input has been read, the |
       command will return the data that is available rather than blocking for more input.  If the channel  is	configured  to	use  a	multi-byte |
       encoding,  then there may actually be some bytes remaining in the internal buffers that do not form a complete character.  These bytes will |
       not be returned until a complete character is available or end-of-file is reached.  The -nonewline switch is ignored if the command returns
       before reaching the end of the file.

       Read  translates  end-of-line sequences in the input into newline characters according to the -translation option for the channel.  See the
       fconfigure manual entry for a discussion on ways in which fconfigure will alter input.
