RE: [TCLCORE] TIP#103, argument expansion

[Joe M. <jo...@mi...>]

I prefer my method for doing this (see http://mini.net/tcl/lconvert for
details).  The only "bad" thing is that it breaks the compiler.  However,
there was some discussion that this could be avoided by making the behavior
dependant on the variable itself (specifically, the flags field) and not by
creating a new Tcl_ObjType (which is basically what my patch does now).

For Tcl 9, I would like to see a more generalized approach that would
involve being able to "hook" the process of calling a command such that the
arguments can be modified prior to and/or after the command being called.
