  30.      TTTTkkkk____MMMMaaaaiiiinnnn acts as the main program for most Tk-based applications.
  31.      Starting with Tk 4.0 it is not called mmmmaaaaiiiinnnn anymore because it is part of
  32.      the Tk library and having a function mmmmaaaaiiiinnnn in a library (particularly a
  33.      shared library) causes problems on many systems.  Having mmmmaaaaiiiinnnn in the Tk
  34.      library would also make it hard to use Tk in C++ programs, since C++
  35.      programs must have special C++ mmmmaaaaiiiinnnn functions.
  36.  
  37.      Normally each application contains a small mmmmaaaaiiiinnnn function that does
  38.      nothing but invoke TTTTkkkk____MMMMaaaaiiiinnnn.  TTTTkkkk____MMMMaaaaiiiinnnn then does all the work of creating
  39.      and running a wwwwiiiisssshhhh-like application.
  40.  
  41.      When it is has finished its own initialization, but before it processes
  42.      commands, TTTTkkkk____MMMMaaaaiiiinnnn calls the procedure given by the _a_p_p_I_n_i_t_P_r_o_c argument.
  43.      This procedure provides a ``hook'' for the application to perform its own
  44.      initialization, such as defining application-specific commands.  The
  45.      procedure must have an interface that matches the type TTTTccccllll____AAAAppppppppIIIInnnniiiittttPPPPrrrroooocccc:
  46.           typedef int Tcl_AppInitProc(Tcl_Interp *_i_n_t_e_r_p);
  47.      _A_p_p_I_n_i_t_P_r_o_c is almost always a pointer to TTTTccccllll____AAAAppppppppIIIInnnniiiitttt; for more details
  48.      on this procedure, see the documentation for TTTTccccllll____AAAAppppppppIIIInnnniiiitttt.
