containing a command (or
sequence of commands) to
execute.

DESCRIPTION
Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj is invoked to record a command as an
event on the history list and then execute it using
Tcl_EvalObjEx (or Tcl_GlobalEvalObj if the TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL
bit is set in flags). It returns a completion code such
as TCL_OK just like Tcl_EvalObjEx, as well as a result
object containing additional information (a result value
or error message) that can be retrieved using Tcl_GetOb
jResult. If you don't want the command recorded on the
history list then you should invoke Tcl_EvalObjEx instead
of Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj. Normally Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj is
only called with top-level commands typed by the user,
since the purpose of history is to allow the user to re-
issue recently-invoked commands. If the flags argument
contains the TCL_NO_EVAL bit then the command is recorded
without being evaluated.
