If the string returned by [self] is a namespace, or qualified procedure name, you really should use the namespace commands to figure out what the tail is. The reason is that ':' is an allowed character in procedure names, and '::', ':::' and '::::' are all equivalent in meaning for qualified names in tcl. The resultant code is also easier to read and maintain.
