Tim Edwards a816da60f9 Updated the HTML command reference files to refer to magic version 8.3,
since all of the title images still had 8.2, and the title text still
said 7.3 or 7.4, having not been updated for a long time.

<HR>
<H3>Usage:</H3>

<H3>Summary:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
The <B>initialize</B> command is part of the procedure for starting
magic from inside the Tcl interpreter. It is not a user command.
Other Tcl-based packages that wish to use <B>magic</B> directly
should follow this procedure:
<UL>
<LI> Load the <TT>tclmagic.so</TT> object file.
<LI> Call <B>initialize</B> with arguments passed to <B>magic</B>
on the command line.
<LI> Call <B>startup</B>
</UL>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>initialize</B> is implemented as a built-in command in <B>magic</B>,
but only in the Tcl version.
