Dear experts, while practicing secondary development in HyperView, I came across the command:
set t [::post::GetT]
Could you please advise where I can find documentation or references for the usage of the GetT command?

    Hello @shiucomp5 ,

    GetT is indeed not documented. It returns a timestamp and it is generally associated with creation of handles with HyperView historical tcl command, in order to make each handle unique.

    That said, use of hwc (and copy/past from hwc to tcl) or even Python from 2024 version reduces the interest and the usage of this function.

    Best Regards,

    Michael
