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.
