67The <tt class="module">Tix</tt> (Tk Interface Extension) module provides an
68additional rich set of widgets. Although the standard Tk library has
69many useful widgets, they are far from complete. The <tt class="module">Tix</tt>
70library provides most of the commonly needed widgets that are missing
71from standard Tk: <tt class="class">HList</tt>, <tt class="class">ComboBox</tt>, <tt class="class">Control</tt>
72(a.k.a. SpinBox) and an assortment of scrollable widgets. <tt class="module">Tix</tt>
73also includes many more widgets that are generally useful in a wide
74range of applications: <tt class="class">NoteBook</tt>, <tt class="class">FileEntry</tt>,
75<tt class="class">PanedWindow</tt>, etc; there are more than 40 of them.
76
77<P>
78With all these new widgets, you can introduce new interaction
79techniques into applications, creating more useful and more intuitive
80user interfaces. You can design your application by choosing the most
81appropriate widgets to match the special needs of your application and
82users.
