+memchan is an extension library to the script language tcl, as created
+by John Ousterhout. It provides two new channel types for in-memory
+channels and the appropriate commands for their creation.
+
+They are useful to transfer large amounts of data between procedures or
+interpreters, and additionally provide an easy interface to on-the-fly
+generation of code too. No need to set or append to a string, just do a
+simple puts.
