add_menucb
The
add_menucb
command creates a checkbox within the specified menu of the
specified window. A checkbox is a small box with a label. Clicking on the box will
toggle the state, from on to off or the reverse. When the box is "on", the Tcl global
variable <var> is set to <onval>. When the box is "off", the global variable is set
to <offval>. Also, if something else changes the global variable, its current state
is reflected in the state of the checkbox. Returns nothing.
