\arguments{
  \item{\dots}{Handled via \code{.Tcl.args}}
}
\details{
  \code{tkcmd} provides a generic interface to calling any Tk or Tcl
  command by simply running \code{.Tcl.args} on the arguments and passing the
  result to \code{.Tcl}. Most of the other commands simply call
  \code{tkcmd} with a particular
  first argument and sometimes also a second argument giving the
  subcommand.

  \code{tktitle} and its assignment form provides an alternate interface
  to Tk's \code{wm title}
  
  There are far too many of these commands to describe them and their
  arguments in full. Please refer to the Tcl/Tk documentation for details.
  Except for a few exceptions, the pattern is that  Tcl subcommands like
  \code{pack configure} are converted to function names like
  \code{tkpack.configure}.
