\sectionauthor{Fred L. Drake, Jr.}{fdrake@acm.org}
The \module{ScrolledText} module provides a class of the same name
which implements a basic text widget which has a vertical scroll bar
configured to do the ``right thing.'' Using the \class{ScrolledText}
class is a lot easier than setting up a text widget and scroll bar
directly. The constructor is the same as that of the
\class{Tkinter.Text} class.
The text widget and scrollbar are packed together in a \class{Frame},
and the methods of the \class{Pack} geometry manager are acquired from
the \class{Frame} object. This allows the \class{ScrolledText} widget
to be used directly to achieve most normal geometry management
behavior.
Should more specific control be necessary, the following attributes
are available:
\begin{memberdesc}[ScrolledText]{frame}
The frame which surrounds the text and scroll bar widgets.
\end{memberdesc}
\begin{memberdesc}[ScrolledText]{vbar}
The scroll bar widget.
\end{memberdesc}
