 '\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk
 '\" manual entries.
 '\"
 '\" .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.
 '\"
 '\" .CS
 '\"	Begin code excerpt.
 '\"
 '\" .CE
 '\"	End code excerpt.
 '\"
 '\" .VS ?version? ?br?
 '\"	Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts
 '\"	of man pages.  The first argument is ignored and used for recording
 '\"	the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be
 '\"	found and removed when they reach a certain age.  If another argument
 '\"	is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar.
 '\"
 '\" .VE
 '\"	End of vertical sidebar.
 '\"
 '\" .DS
 '\"	Begin an indented unfilled display.
 '\"
 '\" .DE
 '\"	End of indented unfilled display.

 '\"	Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget.  The
 '\"	options follow on successive lines, in four columns separated
 '\"	by tabs.
 '\"
 '\" .SE
 '\"	End of list of standard options for a Tk widget.
 '\"
 '\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass
 '\"	Start of description of a specific option.  cmdName gives the
 '\"	option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives
 '\"	the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives
 '\"	the option's class in the option database.

 .SH NAME
 tkvars \- Variables used or set by Tk
 .BE

 .SH DESCRIPTION
 .PP
 The following Tcl variables are either set or used by Tk at various times
 in its execution:
 .TP 15
 \fBtk_library\fR
 This variable holds the file name for a directory containing a library
 of Tcl scripts related to Tk.  These scripts include an initialization
 file that is normally processed whenever a Tk application starts up,
 plus other files containing procedures that implement default behaviors
 for widgets.
 The initial value of \fBtcl_library\fR is set when Tk is added to
 an interpreter;  this is done by searching several different directories
 until one is found that contains an appropriate Tk startup script.
 If the \fBTK_LIBRARY\fR environment variable exists, then
 the directory it names is checked first.
 If \fBTK_LIBRARY\fR isn't set or doesn't refer to an appropriate
 directory, then Tk checks several other directories based on a
 compiled-in default location, the location of the Tcl library directory,
 the location of the binary containing the application, and the current
 working directory.
 The variable can be modified by an application to switch to a different
 library.
 .TP
 \fBtk_patchLevel\fR
 Contains a decimal integer giving the current patch level for Tk.
 The patch level is incremented for each new release or patch, and
 it uniquely identifies an official version of Tk.
 .TP
 \fBtk::Priv\fR
 This variable is an array containing several pieces of information
 that are private to Tk.  The elements of \fBtk::Priv\fR are used by
 Tk library procedures and default bindings.
 They should not be accessed by any code outside Tk.
 .TP
 \fBtk_strictMotif\fR
 This variable is set to zero by default.
 If an application sets it to one, then Tk attempts to adhere as
 closely as possible to Motif look-and-feel standards.
 For example, active elements such as buttons and scrollbar
 sliders will not change color when the pointer passes over them.
 .TP
 \fBtk_textRedraw\fR
 .TP
 \fBtk_textRelayout\fR
 These variables are set by text widgets when they have debugging
 turned on.  The values written to these variables can be used to
 test or debug text widget operations.  These variables are mostly
 used by Tk's test suite.
 .TP 15
 \fBtk_version\fR
 Tk sets this variable in the interpreter for each application.
 The variable holds the current version number of the Tk
 library in the form \fImajor\fR.\fIminor\fR.  \fIMajor\fR and
 \fIminor\fR are integers.  The major version number increases in
 any Tk release that includes changes that are not backward compatible
 (i.e. whenever existing Tk applications and scripts may have to change to
 work with the new release).  The minor version number increases with
 each new release of Tk, except that it resets to zero whenever the
 major version number changes.
