NAME
widget - Demonstration of Perl/Tk widgets
SYNOPSYS
widget [ directory ]
DESCRIPTION
This script demonstrates the various widgets provided by Tk, along with
many of the features of the Tk toolkit. This file only contains code to
generate the main window for the application, which invokes individual
demonstrations. The code for the actual demonstrations is contained in
separate ".pl" files in the "widget_lib" directory, which are autoloaded
by this script as needed.
widget looks in the directory specified on the command line to load user
contributed demonstrations. If no directory name is specified when
widget is invoked and the environment variable WIDTRIB is defined then
demonstrations are loaded from the WIDTRIB directory. If WIDTRIB is
undefined then widget defaults to the released user contributed
directory, "widtrib".
