@Tim Edwards trying to use the built in tcl

clock

command in a magic script but get

invalid command name "clock"

from the parser. If I run this, I get the error

invalid command name "clock"

echo "clock seconds" | magic -dnull -noc -rcfile $PDK_ROOT/$PDK/libs.tech/magic/$PDK.magicrc

If I run this, and type

clock seconds

in the console, it returns a value

magic -dnull -rcfile $PDK_ROOT/$PDK/libs.tech/magic/$PDK.magicrc

Is there somewhere I can register

clock

as a know command (without having to recompile)?

@Mitch Bailey: Because the traditional shorthand "clock" for "clockwise" in magic conflicts with Tcl's "clock", the "clock" command was renamed by the startup script to "orig_clock".
