The iwidgets::spinner command creates a spinner widget. The
    spinner is comprised of an entryfield plus up and down arrow buttons. Arrows
    may be drawn horizontally or vertically.
  














The iwidgets::spinner 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 spinner widgets:








delete	get	icursor	index	
insert	scan	selection	xview	


See the "entry" manual entry for details on the
    associated methods.








childsite	clear	peek


See the "entryfield" manual entry for details on the
    associated methods.









  

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