Tdp_RPC - C access to Tcl-DP remote procedure call commands

#include "network.h"

int Tdp_RPC (interp, fileHandle, command, events, timeout, timeoutReturn)
Tcl_Interp   *interp           /* Tcl interpreter, mainly for error msgs */
char         *fileHandle       /* Represents an RPC connection to a remote 
                                  Tcl/Tk process */
char         *command          /* Tcl/Tk command to be evaluated in the 
                                  remote Tcl/Tk interpreter */
int          events            /* Passed to Tk_DoOneEvent while waiting 
                                  for RPC return value  */
int          timeout           /* Integer milliseconds */
char         *timeoutReturn    /* Tcl command to eval in case of timeout */

If the events argument is less than 0, then no events are handled while waiting for an RPC return value on the given RPC connec- tion. If the events argument is not less than 0, then the events argument is the same type of argument as passed to Tk_DoOneEvent and allows one to flag for the event types which will be handled while waiting for an RPC return value. This events argument, if not less than 0, is automatically or'ed with TK_FILE_EVENTS flag so that file events are always handled.

If the timeout argument is zero or less than zero, timeout will not be checked.
