Very nice addition!

info commands is all C implemented functions and you filter them by excluding the ones with ":" in their name to hide the implicit bind functions *raw:gotjoin etc.?
If that's true, the "official" way would be to hide the ones starting with *.

info procs would be all Tcl implemented functions, not sure if we want to include that or not.

[michaelortmann]

At first i had it filtered for *, but then i saw remaining : in function names. so, i switched to that, which excludes a superset compared to the set of functions starting with * for it didnt occur to me, that : is an allowed char in a function name for python top be able to call it. so i was fast filtering for : here. maybe too fast? if those funcs are callable, we could switch back to * in beginning, yeah.

regarding which functions exactly to include/exclude: this PR aimed to be very simple. few lines of code enabling a new feature. you are free to take it from here and go the extra mile :)

[thommey]

My suggestion:

Use a Python Set instead of a list (to automatically wipe duplicates), then add "info commands" and "info procs" to it, but ignore the ones starting with "*"

[michaelortmann]

Use a Python Set instead of a list

I was using a list instead of set on purpose, because thats the default return type of dir:

https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#dir

example:

>>> type(dir())
<class 'list'>

do you still want to return a set?

[thommey]

no, you are right, list is fine then, but it should still be [info commands] and [info procs] but without the ones starting with *

[michaelortmann]

no, you are right, list is fine then, but it should still be [info commands] and [info procs] but without the ones starting with *

but when filtering with starting * what about remaining strings containing : like filt:dcc_action ?

[thommey]

Those should stay in - a lot of scripts have their commands this way too and it's not "internal" commands

[thommey]

great PR, thanks!
