+# NOTE: In order to minimize changes to Tkinter.py, some of the code here
+#       (TixWidget.__init__) has been taken from Tkinter (Widget.__init__)
+#       and will break if there are major changes in Tkinter.
+#
+# The Tix widgets are represented by a class hierarchy in python with proper
+# inheritance of base classes.
+#
+# As a result after creating a 'w = StdButtonBox', I can write
+#              w.ok['text'] = 'Who Cares'
+#    or              w.ok['bg'] = w['bg']
+# or even       w.ok.invoke()
+# etc.
+#
+# Compare the demo tixwidgets.py to the original Tcl program and you will
+# appreciate the advantages.
