The CLI is a command-line debugger that is completely integrated with TotalView. You can use it and never use the TotalView UI, or you can use it and the UI simultaneously. Because the CLI is embedded in a Tcl interpreter, you can also create debugging functions that exactly meet your needs and use these functions in the same way that you use TotalView’s built-in CLI commands.

With a basic knowledge of Tcl, you can make full use of all CLI features.

This section includes several macros as examples. All Tcl commands unique to the CLI are displayed in bold.
