[description]
[para]

The [package tcl::transform::observer] package provides a command
creating a channel transformation which passes the read and written
bytes through unchanged (like [package tcl::transform::identity]), but
additionally copies the data it has seen for each direction into
channels specified at construction time.

[para] Related transformations in this module are
[package tcl::transform::adler32],
[package tcl::transform::counter],
[package tcl::transform::crc32], and
[package tcl::transform::identity].

[para] The internal [package TclOO] class implementing the transform
handler is a sub-class of the [package tcl::transform::core]
framework.

[section API]

[list_begin definitions]

[call [cmd ::tcl::transform::observe] [arg chan] [arg logw] [arg logr]]

This command creates an observer transformation on top of the channel
[arg chan] and returns its handle. The channel handles [arg logr] and
[arg logw] are there the data is copied to.
