Tcl/Tk Widget Tour 2.0
----------------------

This is a simple "widget tour" for Tcl and Tk.  I wrote it originally for 
a tutorial I was giving, and the response was so enthusiastic I polished it 
up a little for general release.

The intent is to show some simple Tcl/Tk examples (which I call "lessons"), 
with source code, with the ability to modify the code and immediately see 
the results.  The widget tour is a great way to learn the system or 
demonstrate it to someone else.  If you have someone who wants to learn 
more about Tcl and Tk, tell them about the widget tour!


Changes from Version 1.1
------------------------

This biggest change has been a re-write (both in the implementation and the 
lessons) to use Tk's new "pack" syntax.  The widget tour now requires Tk 
version 3.3 or later.

This version also includes:

	- a command window for the demo process
	- better handling of the demo subwindow (you can now run multiple
	  instances of the tour)
	- several new lessons
	- menu to select main window font
	- check for "X server insecure", with descriptive error message


Installing and Running
----------------------

(I will release the complete, binary, ready-to-run kits after I get copies
of the various wish binaries.  Until then, you will need to install Tk on your
system to run the tour.)

To unpack and start the tour:

	% cd <tmp_directory>
	% zcat <wtour-tar-file> | tar xvf -
	% cd wtour
	% ./wtour

Use the menus to navigate through different lessons.  You can make changes
to the lesson source code; click on the Apply button to see the results of
the changes.


Acknowledgements and Notes
--------------------------

If you have any problems getting the widget tour running, drop me a note at 
"payne@crl.dec.com".  Please send me any comments, suggestions, and bug 
fixes.

I hope you enjoy the widget tour.
