NAME
       deleg_proc - Creation of comm delegates (procedures)

SYNOPSIS
       package require Tcl  8.3

       package require interp::delegate::proc  ?0.2?

       ::interp::delegate::proc ?-async? name arguments comm id

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

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 identi-fied identified
              fied 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 gener-ated generated
              ated procedure will not wait for a result and return immediately.
