.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The \fBWidget\fR class inherits everything from the \fBArchetype\fR
class, and adds a Tk frame called the "hull" component to represent
the body of the mega-widget.  The window class name for the hull
is set to the most-specific class name for the mega-widget.
The protected variable \fBitk_interior\fR contains the window
path name for the "hull" component.  Derived classes specialize
this widget by packing other widget components into the hull.
.PP
Since the hull for the \fBWidget\fR class is implemented with a
Tk frame, mega-widgets in the \fBWidget\fR class can be packed
into other frames and toplevels.

.SH "COMPONENTS"
.LP
.nf
Name:   \fBhull\fR
Class:  \fBFrame\fR
.fi
.IP
The "hull" component acts as the body for the entire mega-widget.
Other components are packed into the hull to further specialize
the widget.

.SH EXAMPLE
.PP
The following example implements a simple \fBTextDisplay\fR
mega-widget.  It creates a read-only display of text with
a text widget and a scrollbar.
