Re: [TCLCORE] About TIPs 727 and 729

[Csaba N. <csa...@t-...>]

Hi Stu,

Thanks for your feedback!

There have been negative comments about using the word "cargo" from 
Marc, Steve, Emiliano, and (indirectly) Ashok.  I have been using the 
term "attribute" in all my mega-widgets for decades now, and I 
personally like it more than the word "cargo".  Now there seems to be a 
decision in favor of "attribute" and "tk attribtable", sorry!

Best regards,

Csaba
