# hook.tcl
#
#       This file implements the hook(n) Subject/Observer
#       callback mechanism.  Any number of observers can register for
#       a particular hook from a particular subject; when the
#       subject calls the hook, all observers are called.

# hook::bind --
#
#       By default, binds an observer to a subject's hook.
#       Alternatively, bind can delete or query a binding, or query a
#       number of bindings.
#
# Arguments:
#       subject   (optional) The name of the entity that owns the hook.  
#                 It will usually be a fully-qualified command
#                 name, but "virtual" subjects are also allowed.
#
#       hook      (optional) The name of the hook.  By convention,
#                 hook names are enclosed in angle brackets and contain
#                 no whitespace; however, any non-empty string is allowed.
#
#       observer  (optional) The name of the entity observing the hook.
#                 It will usually be a fully-qualified command name,
#                 but "virtual" observers are also allowed.
#
#                 If observer is the empty string, an observer name
#                 of the form "::hook::ob<num>" will be generated.
#
#       binding   (optional) The binding proper, a command prefix to which
#                 the hook's arguments will be appended.
#
# Results:
#       If called with no arguments, returns a list of the names of the
#       subjects to which observers are bound.
#
#       If called with just a subject name, returns a list of the names 
#       of the subject's hooks to which bindings are bound.
#
#       If called with just a subject name and a hook name, returns a
#       list of the names of the observers bound to that subject and hook.
#
#       If called with a subject name, hook name, and observer name,
#       returns the associated binding, or the empty string if none.
#
#       If called with all four arguments, it either adds or deletes
#       a binding.  If the binding is the empty string, any existing
#       binding is deleted and the empty string is returned.
#       Otherwise the binding is saved, and the observer name is 
#       returned.  The observer will be automatically
#       generated if the empty string is given.

# hook::call --
#
#       A subject calls a hook.  Bindings are called for all bound
#       observers.  There is no guarantee of the order in which bindings
#       will be called.  All bindings are called before the call returns.
#       Note that modules should document the hooks they call, including
#       details of any arguments associated with each hook.
#
# Arguments:
#       subject     The subject sending the hook
#       hook        The name of the hook being sent
#       args        (optional) any arguments for this subject and hook.
#
# Results:
#       The bindings are called in no particular order; the args are
#       appended to each binding.  Returns the empty string.
#
#       If -errorcommand is defined, errors in bindings are handled 
#       by the specified command.  It is called with three arguments:
#       a list of the subject, hook, args, and observer, the error result,
#       and the return options dictionary.
#
#       When the -tracecommand is set, it is called with four arguments:
#       the subject, the hook, a list of the hook arguments, and a 
#       list of the receiving observers.
