</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Usage:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>clockwise</B> [<I>degrees</I>] [<B>-origin</B>] <BR><BR>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
where <I>degrees</I> is the number of degrees to rotate, and
must be a manhattan amount (90, 180, 270).
</BLOCKQUOTE>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Summary:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
The <B>clockwise</B> command rotates the current selection by
the specified amount, in degrees. The default rotation is by
90 degrees. The amount of rotation must be one of 90, 180,
or 270. <P>
If <B>-origin</B> is specified, the rotation is around the
origin of the selection, not around the lower left-hand
corner.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>clockwise</B> is implemented as a built-in <B>magic</B> command.
Because a "standard abbreviation" is <B>clock</B> and conflicts with
the Tcl command <B>clock</B>, this case is handled specially.
The command <B>clock</B> is deprecated in favor of the more general
command <B>rotate</B>, but is maintained for backward compatibility.
