term::ansi::code::ctrl(n) 0.1 tcllib_1_13 "Terminal control"

This command is for introspection. It returns as its result a list containing the names of all attribute commands.

This command imports some or all attribute commands into the namespace ns. This is by default the namespace ctrl. Note that this is relative namespace name, placing the imported command into a child of the current namespace. By default all commands are imported, this can howver be restricted by listing the names of the wanted commands after the namespace argument.
