The iwidgets::spindate command creates a set of spinners
    for use in date value entry. The set includes an month, day, and year
    spinner widget.










The iwidgets::spindate command creates a new Tcl command
    whose name is pathName. This command may be used to invoke various
    operations on the widget. It has the following general form:




pathName option ?arg arg ...?




Option and the args determine the exact behavior of
    the command. The following commands are possible for spindate widgets:











  

  
Returns the current value of the configuration option given by
      option. Option may have any of the values accepted by the
      iwidgets::spindate command.

  

  
Query or modify the configuration options of the widget. If no
      option is specified, returns a list describing all of the available
      options for pathName (see Tk_ConfigureInfo for information
      on the format of this list). If option is specified with no
      value, then the command returns a list describing the one named
      option (this list will be identical to the corresponding sublist of the
      value returned if no option is specified). If one or more
      option-value pairs are specified, then the command modifies the
      given widget option(s) to have the given value(s); in this case the
      command returns an empty string. Option may have any of the values
      accepted by the iwidgets::spindate command.

  

  
Returns the current contents of the spindate widget in a format of string
      or as an integer clock value using the -string and -clicks
      format options respectively. The default is by string. Reference the clock
      command for more information on obtaining dates and their formats.

  

  
Changes the currently displayed date to be that of the date argument. The
      date may be specified either as a string, an integer clock value or the
      keyword "now". Reference the clock command for more information
      on obtaining dates and their formats.
