NAME

Tkx::ROText - Tkx text widget that supports a read-only state.

SYNOPSIS

use Tkx::ROText;
...
my $text = $parent->new_tkx_ROText();

DESCRIPTION

Tk's text widget doesn't support the 'readonly' state, nor does Tk have a separate read-only text widget. This means that Tkx -- being a thin wrapper around Tcl/Tk -- doesn't either.

Instead of providing a text widget that is always read-only (like Perl/Tk's Tk::ROText) this module provides a text widget that supports the 'readonly' state. This makes it possible to switch the widget between being read-only and editable.

When the state is 'readonly' the widget's contents cannot be changed by the user but may be modified programmatically. In all other ways it behaves as (and in fact is) a standard text widget.

The default state is 'readonly.'
