## TixIntro - Introduction to the Tix widget set

### DESCRIPTION

Tix is a set of mega widgets based on the standard Tk widgets. If you are planning only to use Tix with the standard Tk widget set, you can use the program tixwish(1) to interpret your TCL scripts.

To use Tix with other TCL extension packages, you have to call the function Tix_Init() in your Tcl_AppInit() function. Here is an example:

    int Tcl_AppInit(interp)
        Tcl_Interp *interp;
    {
        Tk_Window main;

        main = Tk_MainWindow(interp);

        if (Tcl_Init(interp) == TCL_ERROR) {
    	return TCL_ERROR;
        }
        if (Tk_Init(interp) == TCL_ERROR) {
    	return TCL_ERROR;
        }

        if (Tix_Init(interp) == TCL_ERROR) {
    	return TCL_ERROR;
        }
        /*
         * Call the init procedures for included packages.
         * Each call should look like this:
         *
         * if (Mod_Init(interp) == TCL_ERROR) {
         *     return TCL_ERROR;
         * }
         *
         * where "Mod" is the name of the module.
         */
    }
