Add Tk’s directory to the end of the auto-load search path, if it
isn’t already on the path:
if {[info exists ::auto_path] && $::tk_library ne “” &&
[lsearch -exact $::auto_path $::tk_library] < 0} {
lappend ::auto_path $::tk_library
}
Turn off strict Motif look and feel as a default.
set ::tk_strictMotif 0
Turn on useinputmethods (X Input Methods) by default.
We catch this because safe interpreters may not allow the call.
catch {tk useinputmethods 1}
::tk::PlaceWindow –
place a toplevel at a particular position
Arguments:
toplevel name of toplevel window
?placement? pointer ?center? ; places $w centered on the pointer
widget widgetPath ; centers $w over widget_name
defaults to placing toplevel in the middle of the screen
?anchor? center or widgetPath

::tk::SetFocusGrab –
swap out current focus and grab temporarily (for dialogs)
Arguments:
grab new window to grab
focus window to give focus to
Results:
Returns nothing
proc ::tk::SetFocusGrab {grab {focus {}}} {
set index “grab,focus”
upvar ::tk::FocusGrab($index) data
lappend data [focus]
set oldGrab [grab current $grab]
lappend data $oldGrab
if {[winfo exists $oldGrab]} {
lappend data [grab status $oldGrab]
}
# The "grab" command will fail if another application
# already holds the grab. So catch it.
catch {grab $grab}
if {[winfo exists $focus]} {
focus $focus
}
}
::tk::RestoreFocusGrab –
restore old focus and grab (for dialogs)
Arguments:
grab window that had taken grab
focus window that had taken focus
destroy destroy|withdraw - how to handle the old grabbed window
Results:
Returns nothing
proc ::tk::RestoreFocusGrab {grab focus {destroy destroy}} {
set index “grab,focus”
if {[info exists ::tk::FocusGrab($index)]} {
foreach {oldFocus oldGrab oldStatus} ::tk::FocusGrab(index) { break }
unset ::tk::FocusGrab($index)
} else {
set oldGrab “”
}
catch {focus $oldFocus}

if {$destroy eq "withdraw"} {

}
if {[winfo exists $oldGrab] && [winfo ismapped $oldGrab]} {
if {$oldStatus eq "global"} {
grab -global $oldGrab
} else {
grab $oldGrab
}
}
}
::tk::GetSelection –
This tries to obtain the default selection. On Unix, we first try
and get a UTF8_STRING, a type supported by modern Unix apps for
passing Unicode data safely. We fall back on the default STRING
type otherwise. On Windows, only the STRING type is necessary.
Arguments:
w The widget for which the selection will be retrieved.
Important for the -displayof property.
sel The source of the selection (PRIMARY or CLIPBOARD)
Results:
Returns the selection, or an error if none could be found
if {$tcl_platform(platform) eq “unix”} {
proc ::tk::GetSelection {w {sel PRIMARY}} {
if {[catch {selection get -displayof $w -selection $sel
-type UTF8_STRING} txt]
&& [catch {selection get -displayof $w -selection $sel} txt]} {
return -code error “could not find default selection”
} else {
return $txt
}
}
} else {
proc ::tk::GetSelection {w {sel PRIMARY}} {
if {[catch {selection get -displayof $w -selection $sel} txt]} {
return -code error “could not find default selection”
} else {
return $txt
}
}
}
::tk::ScreenChanged –
This procedure is invoked by the binding mechanism whenever the
“current” screen is changing. The procedure does two things.
First, it uses “upvar” to make variable “::tk::Priv” point at an
array variable that holds state for the current display. Second,
it initializes the array if it didn’t already exist.
Arguments:
screen - The name of the new screen.
proc ::tk::ScreenChanged screen {
set x [string last . screen] if {x > 0} {
set disp [string range screen 0 [expr {x - 1}]]
} else {
set disp $screen
}
uplevel #0 upvar #0 ::tk::Priv.$disp ::tk::Priv
variable ::tk::Priv
global tcl_platform
if {[info exists Priv]} {
set Priv(screen) $screen
return
}
array set Priv {
activeMenu {}
activeItem {}
afterId {}
buttons 0
buttonWindow {}
dragging 0
focus {}
grab {}
initPos {}
inMenubutton {}
listboxPrev {}
menuBar {}
mouseMoved 0
oldGrab {}
popup {}
postedMb {}
pressX 0
pressY 0
prevPos 0
selectMode char
}
set Priv(screen) $screen
set Priv(tearoff) [string equal [tk windowingsystem] "x11"]
set Priv(window) {}
}
Do initial setup for Priv, so that it is always bound to something
(otherwise, if someone references it, it may get set to a non-upvar-ed
value, which will cause trouble later).
tk::ScreenChanged [winfo screen .]
::tk::EventMotifBindings –
This procedure is invoked as a trace whenever ::tk_strictMotif is
changed. It is used to turn on or turn off the motif virtual
bindings.
Arguments:
n1 - the name of the variable being changed (“::tk_strictMotif”).
proc ::tk::EventMotifBindings {n1 dummy dummy} {
upvar $n1 name
if {$name} {
set op delete
} else {
set op add
}

::tk::CancelRepeat –
This procedure is invoked to cancel an auto-repeat action described
by ::tk::Priv(afterId). It’s used by several widgets to auto-scroll
the widget when the mouse is dragged out of the widget with a
button pressed.
Arguments:
None.
proc ::tk::CancelRepeat {} {
variable ::tk::Priv
after cancel $Priv(afterId)
set Priv(afterId) {}

Arguments:
w - Window to which focus should be set.
proc ::tk::TabToWindow {w} {
set wclass [winfo class $w]
if {$wclass eq "Entry" || $wclass eq "Spinbox"} {
$w selection range 0 end

::tk::UnderlineAmpersand –

text w/o ampersand and position of the ampersand.
Double ampersands are converted to single ones.
Position returned is -1 when there is no ampersand.
proc ::tk::UnderlineAmpersand {text} {
set idx [string first “&” text] if {idx >= 0} {

incr idx base } } } if {idx >= 0} {
regsub -all – {&([^&])} $text {\1} text
}
return [list $text $idx]
}
::tk::SetAmpText –
Given widget path and text with “magic ampersands”,
sets -text and -underline options for the widget
proc ::tk::SetAmpText {widget text} {
foreach {newtext under} [::tk::UnderlineAmpersand $text] {
$widget configure -text $newtext -underline $under
}

::tk::FindAltKeyTarget –
search recursively through the hierarchy of visible widgets

proc ::tk::FindAltKeyTarget {path char} {
switch [winfo class $path] {
Button -
Label {
if {[string equal -nocase char \ [string index [path cget -text]
[$path cget -underline]]]} {return $path} else {return {}}

[place slaves $path] ] {
if {”” ne [set target [::tk::FindAltKeyTarget $child $char]]} {
return $target
}
}
}
}
return {}
}
::tk::AltKeyInDialog –
event handler for standard dialogs. Sends <>
to button or label which has appropriate underlined character
proc ::tk::AltKeyInDialog {path key} {
set target [::tk::FindAltKeyTarget $path $key]
if { $target eq “”} return
event generate $target <
}
::tk::mcmaxamp –
Replacement for mcmax, used for texts with “magic ampersand” in it.
proc ::tk::mcmaxamp {args} {
set maxlen 0
foreach arg $args {
set length [string length [lindex [::tk::UnderlineAmpersand [mc arg]] 0]] if {length>$maxlen} {
set maxlen $length
}
}
return $maxlen
}
For now, turn off the custom mdef proc for the mac:
