Online chapter from Tcl/Tk for Programmers (with exercises and solutions).

Some widget maker options are so commonly available that they are not described separately with each kind of widget. I call these the common options and describe them together in this chapter.

A couple widget command actions are common to all types of widgets. These are described with the frame widget type because the frame is the basis from which the other widget types are created.
