A list of all commands that offer some introspection.
It would be useful to understand the definition of introspection being used for the direction of this page. In the way the word is typically used in Tcl, I don't understand the connection to eof, the file commands, some of the interp commands listed perhaps, parray, pid, puts, etc.
Tcl typically has used the word introspection to mean 'command used to return information about some aspect of the tcl interpreter's state'.
