| '\" 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. |
| '\" |
| '\" .SO |
| '\" 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. |
| '\" |
| '\" .UL arg1 arg2 |
| '\" Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally. |

| .SH NAME |
| usual \- access default option-handling commands |
| .br |
| for a mega-widget component |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| \fBusual ?\fItag\fR? ?\fIcommands\fR? |
| .BE |
| |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .PP |
| The \fBusual\fR command is used outside of an \fB[incr\ Tcl]\fR |
| class definition to define the usual set of option-handling |
| commands for a component widget. Option-handling commands |
| are used when a component is registered with the \fBArchetype\fR |
| base class via the "\fBitk_component add\fR" method. They |
| specify how the component's configuration options should be |
| integrated into the composite option list for the mega-widget. |
| Options can be kept, renamed, or ignored, as described in the |
| \fBArchetype\fR man page. |
| .PP |
| It is tedious to include the same declarations again and again |
| whenever components are added. The \fBusual\fR command allows |
| a standard code fragment to be registered for each widget class, |
| which is used by default to handle the options. All of the |
| standard Tk widgets have \fBusual\fR declarations defined in |
| the \fB[incr\ Tk]\fR library. Similar \fBusual\fR declarations |
| should be created whenever a new mega-widget class is conceived. |
| Only the most-generic options should be included in the \fBusual\fR |
| declaration. |
| .PP |
| The \fItag\fR name is usually the name of a widget class, |
| which starts with a capital letter; however, any string registered |
| here can be used later with the \fBusual\fR command described |
| on the \fBArchetype\fR man page. |
| .PP |
| If the \fIcommands\fR argument is specified, it is associated |
| with the \fItag\fR string, and can be accessed later via |
| \fBitk_component add\fR. |
| .PP |
| If only the \fItag\fR argument is specified, this command looks for |
| an existing \fItag\fR name and returns the commands associated |
| with it. If there are no commands associated with \fItag\fR, |
| this command returns the null string. |
| .PP |
| If no arguments are specified, this command returns a list of |
| all \fItag\fR names previously registered. |
| |
| .SH EXAMPLE |
| Following is the \fBusual\fR declaration for the standard |
| Tk button widget: |
| .CS |
| usual Button { |
| keep -background -cursor -foreground -font |
| keep -activebackground -activeforeground -disabledforeground |
| keep -highlightcolor -highlightthickness |
| rename -highlightbackground -background background Background |
| } |
| .CE |
| Only the options that would be common to all buttons in a |
| single mega-widget are kept or renamed. Options like "-text" |
| that would be unique to a particular button are ignored. |
| |
