<H2>WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS</H2><PRE>
Name: <STRONG>height</STRONG>
Class: <STRONG>Height</STRONG>
Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-height</STRONG>
Specifies the height of the scrolled text as an entire
unit. The value may be specified in any of the forms
acceptable to <STRONG>Tk_GetPixels</STRONG>. Any additional space
needed to display the other components such as labels,
margins, and scrollbars force the text to be
compressed. A value of zero along with the same value
for the width causes the value given for the visi-
bleitems option to be applied which administers
geometry constraints in a different manner. The
default height is zero.
Name: <STRONG>hscrollMode</STRONG>
Class: <STRONG>ScrollMode</STRONG>
Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-hscrollmode</STRONG>
Specifies the the display mode to be used for the hor-
izontal scrollbar: <STRONG>static,</STRONG> <STRONG>dynamic,</STRONG> or <STRONG>none</STRONG>. In static
mode, the scroll bar is displayed at all times.
Dynamic mode displays the scroll bar as required, and
none disables the scroll bar display. The default is
static.
Name: <STRONG>sbWidth</STRONG>
Class: <STRONG>Width</STRONG>
Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-sbwidth</STRONG>
Specifies the width of the scrollbar in any of the
forms acceptable to <STRONG>Tk_GetPixels</STRONG>.
Name: <STRONG>scrollMargin</STRONG>
Class: <STRONG>Margin</STRONG>
Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-scrollmargin</STRONG>
Specifies the distance between the text area and
scrollbar in any of the forms acceptable to
<STRONG>Tk_GetPixels</STRONG>. The default is 3 pixels.
Name: <STRONG>textBackground</STRONG>
Class: <STRONG>Background</STRONG>
Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-textbackground</STRONG>
Specifies the background color for the text area in any
of the forms acceptable to <STRONG>Tk_GetColor</STRONG>.
Name: <STRONG>textFont</STRONG>
Class: <STRONG>Font</STRONG>
Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-textfont</STRONG>
Specifies the font to be used in the scrolled text
area.
Name: <STRONG>visibleitems</STRONG>
Class: <STRONG>VisibleItems</STRONG>
Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-visibleitems</STRONG>
Specifies the widthxheight in characters and lines for
the text. This option is only administered if the
width and height options are both set to zero,
otherwise they take precedence. The default value is
80x24. With the visibleitems option engaged, geometry
constraints are maintained only on the text. The size
of the other components such as labels, margins, and
scroll bars, are additive and independent, effecting
the overall size of the scrolled text. In contrast,
should the width and height options have non zero
values, they are applied to the scrolled text as a
whole. The text is compressed or expanded to maintain
the geometry constraints.
Name: <STRONG>vscrollMode</STRONG>
Class: <STRONG>ScrollMode</STRONG>
Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-vscrollmode</STRONG>
Specifies the the display mode to be used for the vert-
ical scrollbar: <STRONG>static,</STRONG> <STRONG>dynamic,</STRONG> or <STRONG>none</STRONG>. In static
mode, the scroll bar is displayed at all times.
Dynamic mode displays the scroll bar as required, and
none disables the scroll bar display. The default is
static.
Name: <STRONG>width</STRONG>
Class: <STRONG>Width</STRONG>
Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-width</STRONG>
Specifies the width of the scrolled text as an entire
unit. The value may be specified in any of the forms
acceptable to <STRONG>Tk_GetPixels</STRONG>. Any additional space
needed to display the other components such as labels,
margins, and scrollbars force the text to be
compressed. A value of zero along with the same value
for the height causes the value given for the visi-
bleitems option to be applied which administers
geometry constraints in a different manner. The
default width is zero.

<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
The <STRONG>scrolledtext</STRONG> command creates a scrolled text widget with
additional options to manage the scrollbars. This includes
options to control the method in which the scrollbars are
displayed, i.e. statically or dynamically. Options also
exist for adding a label to the scrolled text area and con-
trolling its position. Import/export of methods are pro-
vided for file I/O.
</PRE>
<H2>METHODS</H2><PRE>
The <STRONG>scrolledtext</STRONG> command creates a new Tcl command whose
name is <EM>pathName</EM>. This command may be used to invoke vari-
ous operations on the widget. It has the following general
form:
<EM>pathName</EM> <EM>option</EM> ?<EM>arg</EM> <EM>arg</EM> ...?
<EM>Option</EM> and the <EM>arg</EM>s determine the exact behavior of the com-
mand. The following commands are possible for scrolledtext
widgets:

<H2>WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS</H2><PRE>
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>cget</STRONG> <EM>option</EM>
Returns the current value of the configuration option
given by <EM>option</EM>. <EM>Option</EM> may have any of the values
accepted by the <STRONG>scrolledtext</STRONG> command.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>clear</STRONG>
Clear the text area of all characters.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>configure</STRONG> ?<EM>option</EM>? ?<EM>value</EM> <EM>option</EM> <EM>value</EM> ...?
Query or modify the configuration options of the
widget. If no <EM>option</EM> is specified, returns a list
describing all of the available options for <EM>pathName</EM>
(see <STRONG>Tk_ConfigureInfo</STRONG> for information on the format of
this list). If <EM>option</EM> is specified with no <EM>value</EM>, then
the command returns a list describing the one named
option (this list will be identical to the correspond-
ing sublist of the value returned if no <EM>option</EM> is
specified). If one or more <EM>option</EM> - <EM>value</EM> 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. <EM>Option</EM> may have any
of the values accepted by the <STRONG>scrolledtext</STRONG> command.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>import</STRONG> <EM>filename</EM>
Load text from a file. The <EM>filename</EM> must exist.
<EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>export</STRONG> <EM>filename</EM>
Write text to a file. If <EM>filename</EM> exists then contents
are replaced with text widget contents.
