 \fB::tclreadline::Loop\fP
 enter the tclreadline main loop. This command is typically called from
 the startup resource file (something .tclshrc, depending on the interpreter
 you use). \fB::tclreadline::Loop\fP will normally not return.

+.TP 5
+\fB::tclreadline::prompt1\fP
+a proc which is called by ::tclreadline::Loop and returns a string
+which will be displayed as the primary prompt. This prompt will be
+something like "[info nameofexecutable] \[[pwd]\]" possibly fancy colored.
+The default proc is defined on entering the ::tclreadline::Loop,
+if it is not already defined. So: If you define your own proc
+::tclreadline::prompt1 before entering ::tclreadline::Loop, this
+proc is called each time the prompt is to be displayed.
+Example:
+.EQ
+    package require tclreadline
+    namespace eval tclreadline {
+        proc prompt1 {} {
+            return "[clock format [clock seconds]]> "
+        }
+    }
+    ::tclreadline::Loop
+.EN
+Note that non-printable control characters as color control characters
+must be enclosed in literal ctrl-a / ctrl-b to tell readline the length
+of the printable prompt. See for example the variable `prompt_string'
+in the file tclreadlineSetup.tcl in your tclreadline installation directory.
