title: How do I make a Text widget readonly
body: <p>I am trying to make the TEXT widget read-only, so the user can view it yet cannot edit it. I saw the state of "readonly" being used in another SO question, however it throws this error at me</p>
  
  <pre><code>_tkinter.TclError: bad state "readonly": must be disabled or normal
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My code is below</p>
  
  <pre><code>e = Text(root ,height=10, width=50).config(state="readonly")
  e.place(x=1,y=1)
  </code></pre>
