| '\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk |
| '\" manual entries. |
| '\" |
| '\" .HS name section [date [version]] |
| '\" Replacement for .TH in other man pages. See below for valid |
| '\" section names. |
| '\" |
| '\" .AP type name in/out [indent] |
| '\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure. |
| '\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out", |
| '\" or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg, |
| '\" and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be |
| '\" needed; use .AS below instead) |
| '\" |
| '\" .AS [type [name]] |
| '\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and |
| '\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed |
| '\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used. |
| '\" |
| '\" .BS |
| '\" Start box enclosure. From here until next .BE, everything will be |
| '\" enclosed in one large box. |
| '\" |
| '\" .BE |
| '\" End of box enclosure. |
| '\" |
| '\" .VS |
| '\" Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts |
| '\" of man pages. |
| '\" |
| '\" .VE |
| '\" End of vertical sidebar. |
| '\" |
| '\" .DS |
| '\" Begin an indented unfilled display. |

| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .PP |
| The \fBiwidgets::dateentry\fR command creates a quicken style date entry field |
| with a popup calendar by combining the datefield and calendar |
| widgets together. This allows a user to enter the date via the |
| keyboard or by using the mouse and selecting the calendar icon |
| which brings up a popup calendar. |
| .DE |
| |
| .SH "METHODS" |
| .PP |
| The \fBiwidgets::dateentry\fR command creates a new Tcl command whose |
| name is \fIpathName\fR. This |
| command may be used to invoke various |
| operations on the widget. It has the following general form: |
| .DS C |
| \fIpathName option \fR?\fIarg arg ...\fR? |
| .DE |
| \fIOption\fR and the \fIarg\fRs |
| determine the exact behavior of the command. The following |
| commands are possible for dateentry widgets: |
| .SH "INHERITED METHODS" |
| .LP |

| .ta 4c 8c 12c |
| \fBget\fR \fBisvalid\fR \fBshow\fR |
| .fi |
| .LP |
| See the "datefield" manual entry for details on the associated methods. |
| .SH "WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS" |
| .TP |
| \fIpathName \fBcget\fR \fIoption\fR |
| Returns the current value of the configuration option given |
| by \fIoption\fR. |
| \fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the \fBiwidgets::dateentry\fR |
| command. |
| .TP |
| \fIpathName\fR \fBconfigure\fR ?\fIoption\fR? ?\fIvalue option value ...\fR? |
| Query or modify the configuration options of the widget. |
| If no \fIoption\fR is specified, returns a list describing all of |
| the available options for \fIpathName\fR (see \fBTk_ConfigureInfo\fR for |
| information on the format of this list). If \fIoption\fR is specified |
| with no \fIvalue\fR, 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 \fIoption\fR is specified). If |
| one or more \fIoption\-value\fR 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. |
| \fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the \fBiwidgets::dateentry\fR |
| command. |
