WHAT IS BWIDGET ?

The BWidget Toolkit is a high-level Widget Set for Tcl/Tk built using
native Tcl/Tk 8.x namespaces.

The BWidgets have a professional look&feel as in other well known
Toolkits (Tix or Incr Widgets), but the concept is radically different
because everything is pure Tcl/Tk.  No platform dependencies, and no
compiling required.  The code is 100% Pure Tcl/Tk.

The BWidget library was originally developed by UNIFIX Online, and
released under both the GNU Public License and the Tcl license.
BWidget is now maintained as a community project, hosted by
Sourceforge.  Scores of fixes and enhancements have been added by
community developers.  See the ChangeLog file for details.

Ttk support

Johann Oberdorfer has written a tile-version of BWidget consisting in
theme-based parameter switching. No native windows are used on MAC or
Windows. IMHO we need native widgets.

It is not senseful to use BWidget with Ttk due to different concepts.

For the migration of my programs to Ttk, limited Ttk support is
integrated
in the following widgets:
-   ScrolledWindow, Label, Button
-   MainFrame (-sizegrip option)
-   NoteBook (only user frame)
-   LabelEntry, LabelFrame, PagesMgr (by Wojciech Kocjan, docs
missing?)

The documentation pages list the parameter differences.
I do not recomment using this for new projects.

To activate Ttk support, use:
Widget::themed 1

DOCUMENTATION

HTML manual pages are available in the BWman subdirectory.  Point to
index.html for frame version with tree navigation, or to contents.html
for no frame version.
