NAME
     tk_dialog - Create modal dialog and wait for response

SYNOPSIS
     tk_dialog window title text bitmap default string string ...

DESCRIPTION
     This procedure is part of the Tk script library.  Its arguments describe
     a dialog box:

     window
	  Name of top-level window to use for dialog.  Any existing window by
	  this name is destroyed.

     title
	  Text to appear in the window manager's title bar for the dialog.

     text Message to appear in the top portion of the dialog box.

     bitmap
	  If non-empty, specifies a bitmap to display in the top portion of
	  the dialog, to the left of the text.	If this is an empty string
	  then no bitmap is displayed in the dialog.

     default
	  If this is an integer greater than or equal to zero, then it gives
	  the index of the button that is to be the default button for the
	  dialog (0 for the leftmost button, and so on).  If less than zero or
	  an empty string then there won't be any default button.

     string
	  There will be one button for each of these arguments.	 Each string
	  specifies text to display in a button, in order from left to right.

     After creating a dialog box, tk_dialog waits for the user to select one
     of the buttons either by clicking on the button with the mouse or by
     typing return to invoke the default button (if any).  Then it returns the
     index of the selected button:  0 for the leftmost button, 1 for the
     button next to it, and so on.

     While waiting for the user to respond, tk_dialog sets a local grab.  This
     prevents the user from interacting with the application in any way except
     to invoke the dialog box.

KEYWORDS
     bitmap, dialog, modal
