This package provides a widget for the entering of a IP
  address.



  
::ipentry::ipentry pathName ?option
    value...?

  
Creates a new IPv4 ipentry widget and configures it with the given options
      and their values.

  
::ipentry::ipentry6 pathName ?option
    value...?

  
Creates a new ipentry widget for the entry of an IPv6 address. All options
      are the same as the IPv4 widget.




Each widget created with the command above supports the following
    methods:



  

  
Returns a boolean value. True indicates that the entry contains a complete
      IP address, meaning all fields have a value. In some cases IPv6 address
      are valid when fields are missing. You will need to do your own validation
      to detect this.

  

  
Returns the contents of the entry as a list consisting of 4 or 8
    elements.

  

  
IPv4 Takes a list of 4 elements and inserts one into each quad of the
      entry, in order. All values in the list must be empty or integers. Values
      outside the range 0 to 255 are modified to be within the range. IPv6 Takes
      a list of 8 elements and inserts one into each quad of the entry, in
      order. All values in the list must be empty or 1 to 4 hex digits.

  

  
Sets the position of the widgets insertion cursor. Only integer values
      between 0 and 15 are valid for ipentry and 0 to 31 for ipentry6. Setting
      the icursor will only have an effect if the widget already has the input
      focus.

  

  
Modifies the configuration of the widget. For options and their meaning
      see the widget options section.

  

  
Returns information about the current configuration of the widget, for the
      specified option. For options and their meaning see the widget options
      section.










Command-Line Switch:	-textvariable
Database Name:	textvariable
Database Class:	Variable




  

  
The name of a variable which holds the value of the IP address. The value
      must be a string of the form NNN.NNN.NNN.NNN for IPv4 or
      HHHH:HHHH:HHHH:HHHH:HHHH:HHHH:HHHH:HHHH for IPv6 where H is a hex digit.
      The variable will be modified to represent a valid IP address if it is not
      already.
