DESCRIPTION
       ::pkg::create  is  a utility procedure that is part of the standard Tcl library.  It is used to create an appropriate package ifneeded com-
       mand for a given package specification.  It can be used to construct a pkgIndex.tcl file for use with the package mechanism.

OPTIONS
       The parameters supported are:

       -name packageName
              This parameter specifies the name of the package.  It is required.

       -version packageVersion
              This parameter specifies the version of the package.  It is required.

       -load filespec
              This parameter specifies a binary library that must be loaded with the load command.  filespec is a list  with  two  elements.   The
              first  element  is  the name of the file to load.  The second, optional element is a list of commands supplied by loading that file.
              If the list of procedures is empty or omitted, ::pkg::create will set up the library for direct loading (see pkg_mkIndex).  Any num-
              ber of -load parameters may be specified.

       -source filespec
              This  parameter  is  similar to the -load parameter, except that it specifies a Tcl library that must be loaded with the source com-
              mand.  Any number of -source parameters may be specified.

       At least one -load or -source parameter must be given.
