http://purl.org/tcl/home/man/tcl8.4/TkCmd/message.htm ---- Roughly spoken, a multi-line [label] which can reformat itself to shrink-wrap the contained text. See [a little fortune teller] for a usage example. ---- How is message different from [tk_messageBox]? In vernacular English, tk_messageBox is aimed at a situation where a user needs to see a message, and respond to it before proceding, while message is more of a "legend" that can appropriately stay on-screen or otherwise "within reach" over an extended interval. ---- [Category Widget] - [Category Command] - [Tk syntax help] - [Arts and Crafts of Tcl-Tk Programming]
