CVS History for TIP #181

  Created for Neil Madden <nem at cs dot nott dot ac dot uk>

  Some tidying up to clarify what is actually specified to [namespace unknown]
  and to stomp out a security fault that NEM found in his examples.

  Revision through web from Neil Madden <nem at cs dot nott dot ac dot uk>
  Updated the syntax to only operate on the current namespace, and to provide introspection.

  Revision through web from Neil Madden <nem at cs dot nott dot ac dot uk>
  Update TIP so that the global namespace is indeed searched before calling the unknown handler. This is the Right Thing to do, as it prevents issues with resolution of commands in the actual handler, simplifies the implementation, and doesn't exceed the scope of the TIP (which is really about better unknown handling - changing command resolution should be the subject of a different TIP). Also added link to reference implementation.

  Minor fix so examples can copy/paste into tkcon and actually work (with patch, of course).

  Revision through web from Neil Madden <nem at cs dot nott dot ac dot uk>
  Updated to show that default handler can be restored by setting handler to {}

  Revision through web from Neil Madden <nem at cs dot nott dot ac dot uk>
  Altered description of how non-global namespaces default unknown handlers are defined. They are now defined to call the global unknown handler (whatever it is), rather than being hardcoded to ::unknown. This allows simple per-interp unknown handling to be installed as a default.

  Minor tweak of ordering to make more sense...

  Revision through web from Neil Madden <nem at cs dot nott dot ac dot uk>
  Updated the TIP to reflect the realities of a post-229 world. Sharpened up the rationale and cut the irrelevant waffle.

  Finish cleaning up after link spammer

  Formatting cleanup

  Revision through web from Neil Madden <nem at cs dot nott dot ac dot uk>
  Added reference to TIP 221 (interp bgerror) which uses a similar mechanism.

  Revision through web from Neil Madden <nem at cs dot nott dot ac dot uk>
  Added some rationale as to why it is the originating namespace that is responsible for handling unknown commands, rather than the target namespace.
