From Newsgroup: comp.lang.tcl

I am pleased to announce version 1.3 of the toggle switch widget package
Tsw.

What is new in Tsw 1.3?
-----------------------

1. Significantly improved the element creation: Tsw now creates the
trough and slider elements with the aid of generic procedures for
arbitrary themes and theme-specific ones for a few built-in themes.

2. Added plugin capability: Applications can now add explicit support
for any theme by providing an appropriate command of the name
"tsw::createElements_$theme".

3. Added support for the "-class" and "-style" configuration options.

4. Extended the description of the "-size" option in the reference
manual by a detailed description of the dependency between the
"-size" and "-style" options.

5. Added a detailed "STYLING OPTIONS" section to the reference manual.

How to get it?
--------------

Tsw is available for free download from the Web page

https://www.nemethi.de

The distribution file is "tsw1.3.tar.gz" for UNIX and "tsw1_3.zip" for
Windows. These files contain the same information, except for the
additional carriage return character preceding the linefeed at the end
of each line in the text files for Windows.

Tsw is also included in tklib, which has the address

https://core.tcl.tk/tklib

How to install it?
------------------

Install the package as a subdirectory of one of the directories given
by the "auto_path" variable. For example, you can install it as a
subdirectory of the "lib" directory within your Tcl/Tk installation (at
the same level as the tk8.X or tk9.X subdirectory).

To install Tsw on UNIX, "cd" to the desired directory and unpack the distribution file "tsw1.3.tar.gz":

gunzip -c tsw1.3.tar.gz | tar -xf -

On most UNIX systems this can be replaced with

tar -zxf tsw1.3.tar.gz

Both commands will create a directory named "tsw1.3", with the
subdirectories "demos", "doc", and "scripts".

On Windows, use WinZip or some other program capable of unpacking the distribution file "tsw1_3.zip" into the directory "tsw1.3", with the subdirectories "demos", "doc", and "scripts".

How to use it?
--------------

To be able to access the commands and variables of the Tsw package, your scripts must contain one of the lines

package require tsw ?version?
package require Tsw ?version?

Since the Tsw package is implemented in its own namespace called "tsw",
you must either invoke the

namespace import tsw::toggleswitch

command to import the only public procedure of the tsw namespace, or use
the qualified name tsw::toggleswitch. To access Tsw variables, you must
use qualified names.

For a detailed description of the commands and variables provided by Tsw
and of the examples contained in the "demos" directory, see the tutorial "tsw.html" and the reference page "toggleswitch.html", both located in
the "doc" directory.
