 DESCRIPTION
      Tcl_CreateInterp creates a new interpreter  structure  and  returns  a
      token  for  it.   The  token  is  required  in calls to most other Tcl
      procedures, such as Tcl_CreateCommand, Tcl_Eval, and Tcl_DeleteInterp.
      Clients  are  only allowed to access a few of the fields of Tcl_Interp
      structures;  see the Tcl_Interp and Tcl_CreateCommand  man  pages  for
      details.  The new interpreter is initialized with no defined variables
      and only the built-in Tcl commands.  To bind in  additional  commands,
      call Tcl_CreateCommand.

      Tcl_DeleteInterp destroys a command interpreter and  releases  all  of
      the resources associated with it, including variables, procedures, and
      application-specific command bindings.  After Tcl_DeleteInterp returns
      the caller should never again use the interp token.
