Tk::TipEntry
Perl/Tk widget for an entry with tooltip in the entry if it's empty
Update: new home at GitHub - visit https://github.com/asb-capfan/Tk-TipEntry
This widget is derived from Tk::Entry. It implements an other kind of tooltip, that is displayed inside the entry when it's empty. The tooltip will be removed, if the entry gets the focus and reinserted, if the entry loses the focus and it's value is empty.
In addition, the entry evaluates the escape-key. If the entry has the focus and the escape-key is pressed, the original input will be restored...
