# The way to think about this is that each radio button menu
|
|
# controls a different variable -- clicking on one of the
|
|
# mutually exclusive choices in a radiobutton assigns some value
|
|
# to an application variable you provide. When you define a
|
|
# radiobutton menu choice, you have the option of specifying the
|
|
# name of a varaible and value to assign to that variable when
|
|
# that choice is selected. This clever mechanism relieves you,
|
|
# the programmer, from having to write a dumb callback that
|
|
# probably wouldn't have done anything more than an assignment
|
|
# anyway. The Tkinter options for this follow their Tk
|
|
# counterparts:
|
|
# {"variable" : my_flavor_variable, "value" : "strawberry"}
|
|
# where my_flavor_variable is an instance of one of the
|
|
# subclasses of Variable, provided in Tkinter.py (there is
|
|
# StringVar(), IntVar(), DoubleVar() and BooleanVar() to choose
|
|
# from)
