The master window should be either another existing toplevel win- dow or {} for no master. The default is {} for shells and "." for dialogs. Name: <STRONG>modality</STRONG> Class: <STRONG>Modality</STRONG> Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-modality</STRONG> Allows the shell to grab control of the screen in one of three different ways: <STRONG>application</STRONG>, <STRONG>system</STRONG>, or <STRONG>none</STRONG>. Application modal prevents any other toplevel windows within the application which are direct children of '.' from gaining focus. System modal locks the screen and prevents all windows from gaining focus regardless of application. A modality of none performs no grabs at all. The default is none. Name: <STRONG>padX</STRONG> Class: <STRONG>Pad</STRONG> Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-padx</STRONG> Specifies a padding distance for the childsite in the X-direction in any of the forms acceptable to <STRONG>Tk_GetPixels</STRONG>. The default is 10. Name: <STRONG>padY</STRONG> Class: <STRONG>Pad</STRONG> Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-pady</STRONG> Specifies a padding distance for the childsite in the Y-direction in any of the forms acceptable to <STRONG>Tk_GetPixels</STRONG>. The default is 10. Name: <STRONG>title</STRONG> Class: <STRONG>Title</STRONG> Command-Line Switch: <STRONG>-title</STRONG> String to be displayed in the title window decoration. </PRE> <H2><HR ALIGN=LEFT WIDTH=70% SIZE=3></H2><PRE> </PRE> <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE> The <STRONG>shell</STRONG> command creates a shell which is a top level widget which supports modal operation. </PRE> <H2>METHODS</H2><PRE> The <STRONG>shell</STRONG> command create a new Tcl command whose name is <EM>pathName</EM>. This command may be used to invoke various opera- tions 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 shell widg- ets: </PRE> <H2>WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS</H2><PRE> <EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>activate</STRONG> Display the shell and wait based on the modality. For application and system modal activations, perform a grab operation, and wait for the result. The result may be returned via an argument to the <STRONG>deactivate</STRONG> method. <EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>center</STRONG> ?<EM>widget</EM>? Centers the shell with respect to another widget. The widget argument is optional. If provided, it should be the path of another widget with to center upon. If absent, then the shell will be centered on the screen as a whole. <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>shell</STRONG> command. <EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>childsite</STRONG> Returns the pathname of the child site widget. <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>shell</STRONG> command. <EM>pathName</EM> <STRONG>deactivate</STRONG> ?<EM>arg</EM>? Deactivate the display of the shell. The method takes an optional argument to be passed to the <STRONG>activate</STRONG> method which returns the value. The optional argument is only effective for application and system modal dia- logs. </PRE> <H2>COMPONENTS</H2><PRE> Name: <STRONG>shellchildsite</STRONG> Class: <STRONG>frame</STRONG> The shellchildsite component is the user child site for the shell. See the "frame" widget manual entry for details on the shellchildsite component item. </PRE> <H2>EXAMPLE</H2><PRE> shell .sh -modality application -padx 20 -pady 20 -title Shell pack [label [.sh childsite].l -text SHELL] .sh center .sh activate </PRE> <H2>AUTHOR</H2><PRE> Mark L.
