[description]
[para]
The [package tcl::chan::nullzero] package provides a command creating channels,
which are a combination of null and zero devices. They immediately forget
whatever is written to them, and on reading return an infinite stream of null
characters.
[para] Packages related to this are [package tcl::chan::null] and
[package tcl::chan::zero].
[para] The internal [package TclOO] class implementing the channel handler
is a sub-class of the [package tcl::chan::events] framework.
