Get full command line, not just argv

If you mean the original string, the answer is no.
But if you only want the original arguments of the command,
you have access to some global variables:
argc
The number of arguments to tclsh or wish.
argv
Tcl list of arguments to tclsh or wish.
argv0
The script that tclsh or wish started executing (if it was specified) or otherwise the name by which tclsh or wish was invoked.
So you can have an equivalent of the original command with:
Some pages about tclsh and the args:
HTH
ulis
