Re: [MACTCL] Supporting Command-click on window title

[Aivar A. <aiv...@gm...>]

Thanks a lot!

I got it working with .wm_attributes("-titlepath",
stringContainingTheAbsolutePathOfTheDocument)
Passing empty string as the second argument turned the feature off.

I had to do it after setting iconbitmap, otherwise the icon file became the
titlepath.

Best regards,
Aivar


Furthermore, I think there should be something more -- I need to somehow
specify the path of the current document. I can't see how Tk could infer it.
