Overview

This widget is a top-level window that contains text that describes GroupKit i.e. it's version number, authors, and other useful information. It is a combination widget; it contains a number of standard Tk widgets (label message button). These various components can be accessed through the appropriate commands (See the Widget Command section).

Widget command

The gk_about command creates a new Tcl command whose name is pathName. This command may be used to invoke various operations on the widget. It has the following general form:

pathName option ?arg arg ...?

Option and the args determine the exact behavior of the command. The following commands are possible for gk_about widgets:

pathName bitmap

Return the path name of the label containing the widget's bitmap.

pathName button

Return the path name of the button at the bottom of the widget.

pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?

Query or modify the configuration options of the widget. If no option is specified, returns a list describing all of the available options for pathName (see Tk_ConfigureInfo for information on the format of this list). If option is specified with no value, then the command returns a list describing the one named option (this list will be identical to the corresponding sublist of the value returned if no option is specified). If one or more option-value pairs are specified, then the command modifies the given widget option(s) to have the given value(s); in this case the command returns an empty string. Option may have any of the values accepted by the gk_about command.

pathName info

Return the path name of the message which contains the textual information about the program.

pathName title

Return the path name of the label containing the program's title.

pathName version

Return the path name of the message containing the program's version information.

Default bindings
