since all of the title images still had 8.2, and the title text still said 7.3 or 7.4, having not been updated for a long time.

Key macro <B>o</B> implements the command <B>openwindow</B>. This

macro is disabled when using the GUI wrapper.

<H3>Usage:</H3>

<B>openwindow</B> [<I>cell</I>] [<I>name</I>] <BR><BR>

where <I>cell</I> is the name of a cell to be loaded into the
|
|
new window, and <I>name</I> is the Tk path name of a top-level
|
|
window (see below). An empty string or Tcl NULL list "{}" for
|
|
<I>cell</I> will cause the default cell "(UNNAMED)" to be loaded.

<H3>Summary:</H3>
|
|
<BLOCKQUOTE>
|
|
The <B>openwindow</B> command opens a new layout window. Without
|
|
arguments, a new layout window named "magic<I>n</I>" is created,
|
|
where <I>n</I> is the index of the <I>n</I>th window to be
|
|
created. Without a named cell, the new window is loaded with
|
|
a copy of the cell that was present in the last generated layout
|
|
window. <P>
|
|
|
|
The use of parameter <I>name</I> is used in conjunction with a
|
|
wrapper script to attach the layout window to an existing Tk
|
|
frame window.

|
<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
|
|
<BLOCKQUOTE>
|
|
<B>openwindow</B> is implemented as a built-in <B>magic</B>
|
|
window command. It should not be used with the GUI wrapper
|
|
(invoked with <B>magic -w</B>); instead, the <B>openwrapper</B>
|
|
function should be used. Note that it is possible to use
|
|
this command in batch mode, although there is no useful
|
|
reason to do so.
