detach was used to place tcl channels / file handles into and area that
would not be
cleaned up when the interpreter went away.
detach does not exist in 3.x due to the fact that
the way interpreters are handled changed quite a bit.
re-implementing the command was not particularly straightforward
and it ended up not getting done..
