Simply use the rename command. Renaming a proc to an empty string will delete the function and/or proc.

I don't know of any way to 'unset' a proc but you could simply overwrite it with a proc of the same name accepting the same number of arguments that simply returns zero (ie. does nothing). Not exactly elegant, but functional in most circumstances I would have thought.

The only problems i envisage is if you use the command [info procs ?pattern?] elsewhere in your code because the proc would still exist, or perhaps if you are deliberately trying to generate and catch an error if the proc doesn't exist.

hi, i'm wondering if it would be possible to delete a proc without restarting your script..

like..

Code:

proc test {} {return 0} ;# proc is created now how to delete it?

I've been thinking of a way to do this but I can't think of any, is it even possible, ..
