DESCRIPTION
     ::pkg::create is a utility procedure that  is  part  of  the
     standard  Tcl  library.  It is used to create an appropriate
     package ifneeded command for a given package  specification.
     It can be used to construct a pkgIndex.tcl file for use with
     the package mechanism.


OPTIONS
     The parameters supported are:

     -name packageName
          This parameter specifies the name of the  package.   It
          is required.

     -version packageVersion
          This parameter specifies the version  of  the  package.
          It is required.

     -load filespec
          This parameter specifies a binary library that must  be
          loaded  with the load command.  filespec is a list with
          two elements.  The first element is  the  name  of  the
          file  to  load.  The second, optional element is a list
          of commands supplied by loading that file.  If the list
          of  procedures  is empty or omitted, ::pkg::create will
          set  up   the   library   for   direct   loading   (see
          pkg_mkIndex).   Any  number  of -load parameters may be
          specified.

     -source filespec
          This parameter  is  similar  to  the  -load  parameter,
          except  that  it  specifies  a Tcl library that must be
          loaded with the source command.  Any number of  -source
          parameters may be specified.

     At least one -load or -source parameter must be given.
