_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This  package provides a single command for the convenient creation of procedures which delegate the actual work to a remote location via a
       "channel" created by the package comm.

API

       ::interp::delegate::proc ?-async? name arguments comm id
	      This commands creates a procedure which is named by name and returns its fully-qualified name. All  invokations  of  this  procedure
	      will delegate the actual work to the remote location identified by the comm channel comm and the endpoint id.

	      The name of the remote procedure invoked by the delegator is [namespace tail name]. I.e., namespace information is stripped from the
	      call.

	      Normally the generated procedure marshalls the arguments, and returns the result from the remote procedure as  its  own  result.	If
	      however the option -async was specified then the generated procedure will not wait for a result and return immediately.
