3class WidgetRedirector:
4 """Support for redirecting arbitrary widget subcommands.
6 Some Tk operations don't normally pass through tkinter. For example, if a
7 character is inserted into a Text widget by pressing a key, a default Tk
8 binding to the widget's 'insert' operation is activated, and the Tk library
9 processes the insert without calling back into tkinter.
11 Although a binding to <Key> could be made via tkinter, what we really want
12 to do is to hook the Tk 'insert' operation itself. For one thing, we want
13 a text.insert call in idle code to have the same effect as a key press.
15 When a widget is instantiated, a Tcl command is created whose name is the
16 same as the pathname widget._w. This command is used to invoke the various
17 widget operations, e.g. insert (for a Text widget). We are going to hook
18 this command and provide a facility ('register') to intercept the widget
19 operation. We will also intercept method calls on the tkinter class
20 instance that represents the tk widget.
22 In IDLE, WidgetRedirector is used in Percolator to intercept Text
23 commands. The function being registered provides access to the top
24 of a Percolator chain. At the bottom of the chain is a call to the
25 original Tk widget operation.
