The Tcl man page, formatted for html and available at
urls such as
http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4/TclCmd/Tcl.htm , shows a
problem in that it has no legitamate DESCRIPTION
information, so the html formatter provides this:

[1]NAME

Tcl - Summary of Tcl language syntax.

[2]DESCRIPTION

[3]$name
[4]$name(index)
[5]${name}

[6]\a
[7]\b
[8]\f
[9]\n
[10]\r
[11]\t
[12]\v
[13]\<newline>whiteSpace
[14]\\ [15]\ooo
[16]\xhh
[17]\uhhhh

which is rather ugly...

Perhaps could something innoculous be inserted as a
DESCRIPTION?

    Several people on The Tcl'ers Chat have asked to review the change before I commit.
    Here it is.
