| 56 | 16.1.2.1 How To Use This Section</A> | |
| 57 | </H3> | |
| 58 | ||
| 59 | <P> | |
| 60 | This section is designed in two parts: the first half (roughly) covers | |
| 61 | background material, while the second half can be taken to the | |
| 62 | keyboard as a handy reference. | |
| 63 | ||
| 64 | <P> | |
| 65 | When trying to answer questions of the form ``how do I do blah'', it | |
| 66 | is often best to find out how to do``blah'' in straight Tk, and then | |
| 67 | convert this back into the corresponding <tt class="module"><a href="module-Tkinter.html">Tkinter</a></tt> call. | |
| 68 | Python programmers can often guess at the correct Python command by | |
| 69 | looking at the Tk documentation. This means that in order to use | |
| 70 | Tkinter, you will have to know a little bit about Tk. This document | |
| 71 | can't fulfill that role, so the best we can do is point you to the | |
| 72 | best documentation that exists. Here are some hints: | |
| 73 | ||
| 74 | <P> | |
| 75 | ||
| 76 | <UL> | |
| 77 | <LI>The authors strongly suggest getting a copy of the Tk man | |
| 78 | pages. Specifically, the man pages in the <code>mann</code> directory are most | |
| 79 | useful. The <code>man3</code> man pages describe the C interface to the Tk | |
| 80 | library and thus are not especially helpful for script writers. | |
| 81 | ||
| 82 | <P> | |
| 83 | </LI> | |
| 84 | <LI>Addison-Wesley publishes a book called <em class="citetitle" | |
| 85 | >Tcl and the | |
| 86 | Tk Toolkit</em> by John Ousterhout (ISBN 0-201-63337-X) which is a good | |
| 87 | introduction to Tcl and Tk for the novice. The book is not | |
| 88 | exhaustive, and for many details it defers to the man pages. | |
| 89 | ||
| 90 | <P> | |
| 91 | </LI> | |
| 92 | <LI><span class="file">Tkinter.py</span> is a last resort for most, but can be a good | |
| 93 | place to go when nothing else makes sense. | |
