Syntax

 Each statement is ended by a newline character, (Enter), or by a semi-colon, (;). This means that statements cannot be casually spread over several lines. To continue a statement on the next line, end the line with a backslash \.  A line beginning with a hatch mark # is a comment.

    # This is a comment in {\bf Tcl}.
