- .SH NAME
- tkwait - Wait for variable to change or window to be destroyed
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- fBtkwait variable fInamefR
- .sp
- fBtkwait visibility fInamefR
- .sp
- fBtkwait window fInamefR
- .BE
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .PP
- The fBtkwaitfR command waits for one of several things to happen,
- then it returns without taking any other actions.
- The return value is always an empty string.
- If the first argument is fBvariablefR (or any abbreviation of
- it) then the second argument is the name of a global variable and the
- command waits for that variable to be modified.
- If the first argument is fBvisibilityfR (or any abbreviation
- of it) then the second argument is the name of a window and the
- fBtkwaitfR command waits for a change in its
- visibility state (as indicated by the arrival of a VisibilityNotify
- event). This form is typically used to wait for a newly-created
- window to appear on the screen before taking some action.
- If the first argument is fBwindowfR (or any abbreviation
- of it) then the second argument is the name of a window and the
- fBtkwaitfR command waits for that window to be destroyed.
- This form is typically used to wait for a user to finish interacting
- with a dialog box before using the result of that interaction.
- .PP
- While the fBtkwaitfR command is waiting it processes events in
- the normal fashion, so the application will continue to respond
- to user interactions.
- If an event handler invokes fBtkwaitfR again, the nested call
- to fBtkwaitfR must complete before the outer call can complete.
- .SH KEYWORDS
- variable, visibility, wait, window
