Description-en: Tcl extension implementing script level access to Tcl threading capabilities
The thread extension creates threads that contain Tcl interpreters,
and it lets you send scripts to those threads for evaluation. It also
enables you to share data between threads in a safe, protected
fashion. Additionally, it provides script-level access to basic
thread synchronization primitives, like mutexes and condition
variables.
