+Tclsh creates three channels by default (on platforms where the
+underlying operating system supports this behaviour) named \fBstdin\fR
+(which is read-only) \fBstdout\fR and \fBstderr\fR (both of which are
+write only.)  The intended semantics of their use is very similar to
+that of the equivalently-named file handles in C - input, either as
+typing by the user or data from a file or pipe, comes from
+\fBstdin\fR, output, either to the user's terminal or to a file or
+pipe, goes to \fBstdout\fR, and errors are reported (typically to the
+user's terminal) to \fBstderr\fR - and the channels are
+\fBfconfigure\fRd to support this usage.
