tk_dialog - Create modal dialog and wait for response








tk_dialog window title text bitmap default string string
    ...












This procedure is part of the Tk script library. Its arguments
    describe a dialog box:



  

  
Name of top-level window to use for dialog. Any existing window by this
      name is destroyed.

  

  
Text to appear in the window manager's title bar for the dialog.

  

  
Message to appear in the top portion of the dialog box.

  

  
If non-empty, specifies a bitmap to display in the top portion of the
      dialog, to the left of the text. If this is an empty string then no bitmap
      is displayed in the dialog.

  

  
If this is an integer greater than or equal to zero, then it gives the
      index of the button that is to be the default button for the dialog (0 for
      the leftmost button, and so on). If less than zero or an empty string then
      there will not be any default button.

  

  
There will be one button for each of these arguments. Each string
      specifies text to display in a button, in order from left to right.




After creating a dialog box, tk_dialog waits for the user
    to select one of the buttons either by clicking on the button with the mouse
    or by typing return to invoke the default button (if any). Then it returns
    the index of the selected button: 0 for the leftmost button, 1 for the
    button next to it, and so on. If the dialog's window is destroyed before the
    user selects one of the buttons, then -1 is returned.


While waiting for the user to respond, tk_dialog sets a
    local grab. This prevents the user from interacting with the application in
    any way except to invoke the dialog box.
