An Array in the Command's Shadow is an array with an associated set of commands
that each provide access to or allow certain useful manipulations of the array.

An AitCS may be used where a program would normally use global or namespace variables
to hold configuration, state, widget paths, temp values, etc.

Using AitCS is not as fast as using straight Tcl or Jim.
The desire for convenience vs the need for speed should
be taken into account when deciding to use AitCS.
