This directory contains a collection of programs to demonstrate | |
the features of the Tk toolkit. The programs are all scripts for | |
"wish", a windowing shell. If wish has been installed on your path | |
then you can invoke any of the programs in this directory just | |
by typing its file name to your command shell under Unix. Otherwise | |
invoke wish with the file as its first argument, e.g., "wish hello". | |
The rest of this file contains a brief description of each program. | |
Files with names ending in ".tcl" are procedure packages used by one | |
or more of the demo programs; they can't be used as programs by | |
themselves so they aren't described below. | |
hello - Creates a single button; if you click on it, a message | |
is typed and the application terminates. | |
widget - Contains a collection of demonstrations of the widgets | |
currently available in the Tk library. Most of the .tcl | |
files are scripts for individual demos available through | |
the "widget" program. | |
ixset - A simple Tk-based wrapper for the "xset" program, which | |
allows you to interactively query and set various X options | |
such as mouse acceleration and bell volume. Thanks to | |
Pierre David for contributing this example. | |
rolodex - A mock-up of a simple rolodex application. It has much of | |
the user interface for such an application but no back-end | |
database. This program was written in response to Tom | |
LaStrange's toolkit benchmark challenge. | |
tcolor - A color editor. Allows you to edit colors in several | |
different ways, and will also perform automatic updates | |
using "send". | |
rmt - Allows you to "hook-up" remotely to any Tk application | |
on the display. Select an application with the menu, | |
then just type commands: they'll go to that application. | |
timer - Displays a seconds timer with start and stop buttons. | |
Control-c and control-q cause it to exit. | |
browse - A simple directory browser. Invoke it with and argument | |
giving the name of the directory you'd like to browse. | |
Double-click on files or subdirectories to browse them. | |
Control-c and control-q cause the program to exit. | |
