2.13. Tcl Scripting Basics

The core Tcl commands support variables, control structures, and procedures. Additionally, there are commands for accessing the file system and network sockets, and running other programs. You can create platform-independent graphical interfaces with the Tk widget set.

Tcl commands are executed immediately as they are typed in an interactive Tcl shell. You can also create scripts (including the examples in this chapter) in files and run them with the Intel® Quartus® Prime executables or with the tclsh shell.
