<P>
The <B>tixSelect</B></I> command creates a new window (given by the
<I>pathName</I></B> argument) and makes it into a Select widget.
Additional options, described above, may be specified on the command
line or in the option database to configure aspects of the
Select widget such as its cursor and relief.
 
The Select widget is a container of button subwidgets. It can
be used to provide radio-box or check-box style of selection options
for the user.

<P>
The <B>tixSelect</B></I> command creates a new Tcl command whose name is
command may be used to invoke various operations on the widget.  It
has the following general form:
<pre>
<I>pathName option </I></B>?<I>arg arg ...</I></B>?
<P>
</pre>
<I>PathName</I></B> is the name of the command, which is the same as the
determine the exact behavior of the command.  The following commands
are possible for Select widgets:
<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName <B>add<I> buttonName </I></B>?<I>option value ... </I></B>?
</I></B>
<DD> Adds a new button subwidget with the name </B></I>buttonName</B></I> into the
Select widget. Additional configuration options can be given
to configure the new button subwidget.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName <B>cget<I> <I>option</I></B>
</I></B>
<DD> Returns the current value of the configuration option given by
<I>option</I></B>. <I>Option</I></B> may have any of the values accepted by the
<B>tixSelect</B></I> command.
</DL>
<DL>
<DT> <I>pathName <B>configure</B></I> ?<I>option</I></B>? <I>?value option value ...</I></B>? 
</I></B>
<DD> Query or modify the configuration options of the widget.  If no
<I>option</I></B> is specified, returns a list describing all of the
available options for <I>pathName</I></B> (see <B>Tk_ConfigureInfo</B></I> for
information on the format of this list). If <I>option</I></B> is specified
with no <I>value</I></B>, 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 <I>option</I></B> is specified).  If
one or more <I>option-value</I></B> 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.  <I>Option</I></B> may have
any of the values accepted by the <B>tixSelect</B></I> command.
