+.SH NAME
+proc \- Create a Tcl procedure
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBproc \fIname args body\fR
+.BE
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+The \fBproc\fR command creates a new Tcl procedure named
+\fIname\fR, replacing
+any existing command or procedure there may have been by that name.
+Whenever the new command is invoked, the contents of \fIbody\fR will
+be executed by the Tcl interpreter.
+Normally, \fIname\fR is unqualified
+(does not include the names of any containing namespaces),
+and the new procedure is created in the current namespace.
+If \fIname\fR includes any namespace qualifiers,
+the procedure is created in the specified namespace.
+\fIArgs\fR specifies the formal arguments to the
+procedure.  It consists of a list, possibly empty, each of whose
+elements specifies
+one argument.  Each argument specifier is also a list with either
+one or two fields.  If there is only a single field in the specifier
+then it is the name of the argument; if there are two fields, then
+the first is the argument name and the second is its default value.
+Arguments with default values that are followed by non-defaulted
+arguments become required arguments; enough actual arguments must be
+supplied to allow all arguments up to and including the last required
+formal argument.
+.PP
+When \fIname\fR is invoked a local variable
+will be created for each of the formal arguments to the procedure; its
+value will be the value of corresponding argument in the invoking command
+or the argument's default value.
+Actual arguments are assigned to formal arguments strictly in order.
+Arguments with default values need not be
+specified in a procedure invocation.  However, there must be enough
+actual arguments for all the
+formal arguments that do not have defaults, and there must not be any extra
+actual arguments.
+Arguments with default values that are followed by non-defaulted
+arguments become de-facto required arguments, though this may change
+in a future version of Tcl; portable code should ensure that all
+optional arguments come after all required arguments.
+.PP
+There is one special case to permit procedures with
+variable numbers of arguments.  If the last formal argument has the name
+.QW \fBargs\fR ,
+then a call to the procedure may contain more actual arguments
+than the procedure has formal arguments.  In this case, all of the actual arguments
+starting at the one that would be assigned to \fBargs\fR are combined into
+a list (as if the \fBlist\fR command had been used); this combined value
+is assigned to the local variable \fBargs\fR.
+.PP
+When \fIbody\fR is being executed, variable names normally refer to
+local variables, which are created automatically when referenced and
+deleted when the procedure returns.  One local variable is automatically
+created for each of the procedure's arguments.
+Other variables can only be accessed by invoking one of the \fBglobal\fR,
+\fBvariable\fR, \fBupvar\fR or \fBnamespace upvar\fR commands.
+The current namespace when \fIbody\fR is executed will be the
+namespace that the procedure's name exists in, which will be the
+namespace that it was created in unless it has been changed with
+\fBrename\fR.
+'\" We may change this! It makes [variable] unstable when renamed and is
+'\" frankly pretty crazy, but doing it right is harder than it looks.
+.PP
+The \fBproc\fR command returns an empty string.  When a procedure is
+invoked, the procedure's return value is the value specified in a
+\fBreturn\fR command.  If the procedure does not execute an explicit
+\fBreturn\fR, then its return value is the value of the last command
+executed in the procedure's body.
+If an error occurs while executing the procedure
+body, then the procedure-as-a-whole will return that same error.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.PP
+This is a procedure that takes two arguments and prints both their sum
+and their product. It also returns the string
+.QW OK
+to the caller as an explicit result.
+.PP
+.CS
+\fBproc\fR printSumProduct {x y} {
+    set sum [expr {$x + $y}]
+    set prod [expr {$x * $y}]
+    puts "sum is $sum, product is $prod"
+    return "OK"
+}
+.CE
+.PP
+This is a procedure that accepts arbitrarily many arguments and prints
+them out, one by one.
+.PP
+.CS
+\fBproc\fR printArguments args {
+    foreach arg $args {
+        puts $arg
+    }
+}
+.CE
+.PP
+This procedure is a bit like the \fBincr\fR command, except it
+multiplies the contents of the named variable by the value, which
+defaults to \fB2\fR:
+.PP
+.CS
+\fBproc\fR mult {varName {multiplier 2}} {
+    upvar 1 $varName var
+    set var [expr {$var * $multiplier}]
+}
