ARGUMENTS
       Tcl_Interp *interp (in/out)			    The interpreter in
							    which  the	names‐
							    pace   exists  and
							    where name lookups
							    are	    performed.
							    Also  where	 error
							    result    messages
							    are written.

       const char *name (in)				    The	 name  of  the
							    namespace  or com‐
							    mand to be created
							    or accessed.

       ClientData clientData (in)			    A  context pointer
							    by the creator  of
							    the	    namespace.
							    Not interpreted by
							    Tcl at all.

       Tcl_NamespaceDeleteProc *deleteProc (in)		    A pointer to func‐
							    tion to call  when
							    the	 namespace  is
							    deleted,  or  NULL
							    if	no  such call‐
							    back is to be per‐
							    formed.

       Tcl_Namespace *nsPtr (in)			    The	 namespace  to
							    be manipulated, or
							    NULL   (for	 other
							    than   Tcl_Delete‐
							    Namespace)	    to
							    manipulate	   the
							    current namespace.

       Tcl_Obj *objPtr (out)				    A  reference to an
							    unshared value  to
							    which the function
							    output   will   be
							    written.

       const char *pattern (in)				    The	    glob-style
							    pattern	  (see
							    Tcl_StringMatch)
							    that describes the
							    commands   to   be
							    imported	    or
							    exported.

       int resetListFirst (in)				    Whether  the  list
							    of export patterns
							    should   be	 reset
							    before adding  the
							    current pattern to
							    it.

       int allowOverwrite (in)				    Whether  new  com‐
							    mands  created  by
							    this import action
							    can	     overwrite
							    existing commands.

       Tcl_Namespace *contextNsPtr (in)			    The	 location   in
							    the	     namespace
							    hierarchy	 where
							    the	 search	 for a
							    namespace or  com‐
							    mand   should   be
							    conducted relative
							    to when the search
							    term is not rooted
							    at	  the	global
							    namespace.	  NULL
							    indicates the cur‐
							    rent namespace.

       int flags (in)					    OR-ed  combination
							    of	bits  control‐
							    ling    how	   the
							    search  is	to  be
							    performed.	   The
							    following	 flags
							    are	    supported:
							    TCL_GLOBAL_ONLY
							    (indicates	  that
							    the	   search   is
							    always to be  con‐
							    ducted relative to
							    the global	names‐
							    pace),  TCL_NAMES‐
							    PACE_ONLY	 (just
							    for	  Tcl_FindCom‐
							    mand;    indicates
							    that the search is
							    always to be  con‐
							    ducted relative to
							    the context names‐
							    pace),	   and
							    TCL_LEAVE_ERR_MSG
							    (indicates that an
							    error      message
							    should  be left in
							    the interpreter if
							    the search fails.)

       Tcl_Obj *handlerPtr (in)				    A  script fragment
							    to be installed as
							    the	 unknown  com‐
							    mand  handler  for
							    the	 namespace, or
							    NULL to reset  the
							    handler   to   its
							    default.

DESCRIPTION
       Namespaces are hierarchic naming contexts that can contain commands and
       variables.   They  also maintain a list of patterns that describes what
       commands are exported, and can import commands that have been  exported
       by  other  namespaces.	Namespaces can also be manipulated through the
       Tcl command namespace.

       The Tcl_Namespace structure encapsulates a namespace, and is guaranteed
       to  have the following fields in it: name (the local name of the names‐
       pace, with no namespace separator characters in it, with empty denoting
       the global namespace), fullName (the fully specified name of the names‐
       pace), clientData, deleteProc (the values  specified  in	 the  call  to
       Tcl_CreateNamespace), and parentPtr (a pointer to the containing names‐
       pace, or NULL for the global namespace.)

       Tcl_CreateNamespace creates a new namespace.  The deleteProc will  have
       the following type signature:

	      typedef void Tcl_NamespaceDeleteProc(
		      ClientData clientData);

       Tcl_DeleteNamespace deletes a namespace, calling the deleteProc defined
       for the namespace (if any).

       Tcl_AppendExportList retrieves the  export  patterns  for  a  namespace
       given namespace and appends them (as list items) to objPtr.

       Tcl_Export  sets	 and  appends  to the export patterns for a namespace.
       Patterns are appended unless the resetListFirst flag is true.

       Tcl_Import imports commands matching a pattern into a namespace.	  Note
       that the pattern must include the name of the namespace to import from.
       This function returns an error if an attempt to import a	 command  over
       an  existing  command  is made, unless the allowOverwrite flag has been
       set.

       Tcl_ForgetImport removes imports matching a pattern.

       Tcl_GetCurrentNamespace returns the current  namespace  for  an	inter‐
       preter.

       Tcl_GetGlobalNamespace returns the global namespace for an interpreter.

       Tcl_FindNamespace  searches  for a namespace named name within the con‐
       text of the namespace contextNsPtr.  If the namespace cannot be	found,
       NULL is returned.

       Tcl_FindCommand searches for a command named name within the context of
       the namespace contextNsPtr.  If the command cannot be  found,  NULL  is
       returned.

       Tcl_GetNamespaceUnknownHandler  returns the unknown command handler for
       the namespace, or NULL if none is set.

       Tcl_SetNamespaceUnknownHandler sets the unknown command handler for the
       namespace.  If  handlerPtr  is  NULL,  then the handler is reset to its
       default.
