# Messagebox
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Implements an information messages area widget with scrollbars.
# Message types can be user defined and configured. Their options
# include foreground, background, font, bell, and their display
# mode of on or off. This allows message types to defined as needed,
# removed when no longer so, and modified when necessary. An export
# method is provided for file I/O.
#
# The number of lines that can be displayed may be limited with
# the default being 1000. When this limit is reached, the oldest line
# is removed. There is also support for saving the contents to a
# file, using a file selection dialog.
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
#
