DESCRIPTION

       The  iwidgets::finddialog  command creates a find dialog that works in conjunction with a text or scrolledtext widget to provide a means of
       performing search operations.  The user is prompted for a text pattern to be found in the text or scrolledtext widget.  The search  can	be
       for all occurances, by regular expression, considerate of the case, or backwards.

METHODS

       The  iwidgets::finddialog  command creates a new Tcl command whose name is pathName.  This command may be used to invoke various operations
       on the widget.  It has the following general form: pathName option ?arg arg ...?  Option and the args determine the exact behavior  of  the
       command.  The following commands are possible for finddialog widgets:

INHERITED METHODS

       add	       buttonconfigure		      defaulthide
       invoke	       show

       See the "buttonbox" widget manual entry for details on the above inherited methods.

       activate        center	      deactivate

       See the "shell" widget manual entry for details on the above inherited methods.

WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS
       pathName cget option
	      Returns  the  current  value  of	the configuration option given by option.  Option may have any of the values accepted by the iwid-
	      gets::finddialog command.

       pathName clear
	      Clears the pattern in the entry field and the pattern matchin indicators in the text or scrolledtext widget.

       pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?
	      Query or modify the configuration options of the widget.	If no option is specified, returns a list describing all of the  available
	      options  for pathName (see Tk_ConfigureInfo for information on the format of this list).	If option is specified with no value, then
	      the command returns a list describing the one named option (this list will be identical to the corresponding sublist  of	the  value
	      returned	if  no	option is specified).  If one or more option-value pairs are specified, then the command modifies the given widget
	      option(s) to have the given value(s);  in this case the command returns an empty string.	Option may have any of the values accepted
	      by the iwidgets::finddialog command.

       pathName find
	      Search  for a specific text string in the text widget given by the -textwidget option.  This method is the standard callback for the
	      Find button.  It is made available such that it can be bound to a find again action.
