DESCRIPTION

The Mged command creates a new window (given by the pathName argument) and makes it into an Mged widget. The Mged widget has an associated database object, which enables it to interact with a database. Additional options, described above, may be specified on the command line or in the option database to configure aspects of the Mged widget. The Mged command returns its pathName argument. At the time this command is invoked, there must not exist a window named pathName, but pathName's parent must exist.

METHODS

The Mged command creates a new Tcl command whose name is pathName. This command may be used to invoke various operations on the mged widget. It has the following general form:

pathName option ?arg arg ...?

Option and the args determine the exact behavior of the command. The following commands are possible for mged widgets:
