<H2><A NAME="sect7" HREF="#toc7"><B>DESCRIPTION</B></A></H2>

The <B>promptdialog</B> command creates a prompt dialog similar to
the OSF/Motif standard prompt dialog composite widget. The
promptdialog is derived from the dialog class and is composed
of a EntryField with commands to manipulate the dialog
buttons.
<P>

<H2><A NAME="sect8" HREF="#toc8"><B>METHODS</B></A></H2>

The <B>promptdialog</B> command creates a new Tcl command whose
name is <I>pathName</I>. This command may be used to invoke various
operations on the widget. It has the following general
form:
<P>
<I>pathName</I> <I>option</I> ?<I>arg</I> <I>arg</I> ...?
<P>
<I>Option</I> and the <I>arg</I>s determine the exact behavior of the command.
The following commands are possible for promptdialog
widgets:

<I>pathName</I> <B>cget</B> <I>option</I><BR>

Returns the current value of the configuration option
given by <I>option</I>. <I>Option</I> may have any of the values
accepted by the <B>promptdialog</B> command.
<P>
<I>pathName</I> <B>configure</B> ?<I>option</I>? ?<I>value</I> <I>option</I> <I>value</I> ...?
Query or modify the configuration options of the
widget. If no <I>option</I> is specified, returns a list
describing all of the available options for <I>pathName</I>
(see <B>Tk_ConfigureInfo</B> for information on the format of
this list). If <I>option</I> is specified with no <I>value</I>, then
the command returns a list describing the one named
option (this list will be identical to the corresponding
sublist of the value returned if no <I>option</I> is
specified). If one or more <I>option</I> - <I>value</I> pairs are
specified, then the command modifies the given widget
option(s) to have the given value(s); in this case the
command returns an empty string. <I>Option</I> may have any
of the values accepted by the <B>promptdialog</B> command.
