+</pre><H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
+<P>
+The <B>selectionbox</B> command creates a scrolled list of items and
+a selection entry field. The user may choose any of the items displayed
+in the scrolled list of alternatives and the selection field will be
+filled with the choice. The user is also free to enter a new value in
+the selection entry field. Both the list and entry areas have labels.
+A child site is also provided in which the user may create other widgets
+to be used in conjunction with the selection box.
+
+</pre><H2>METHODS</H2>
+<P>
+The <B>selectionbox</B> command creates a new Tcl command whose
+name is <I>pathName</I>. This
+command may be used to invoke various
+operations on the widget. It has the following general form:
+<pre>
+<I>pathName option </I>?<I>arg arg ...</I>?
+</pre>
+<I>Option</I> and the <I>arg</I>s
+determine the exact behavior of the command.

+<DL>
+<DT> <I>pathName <B>cget</B> <I>option</I>
+</I></B>
+<DD> Returns the current value of the configuration option given
+by <I>option</I>.
+<I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the <B>selectionbox</B>
+command.
+</DL>
+<DL>
+<DT> <I>pathName <B>childsite</B>
+</I></B>
+<DD> Returns the child site widget path name.
+</DL>
+<DL>
+<DT> <I>pathName <B>clear</B> <I>component</I>
+</I></B>
+<DD> Delete the contents of either the selection entry widget or
+items list. The <I>component</I> argument may be either <B>items</B>
+or <B>selection</B>.
+</DL>
+<DL>
+<DT> <I>pathName</I> <B>configure</B> ?<I>option</I>? ?<I>value option value ...</I>?
+</I></B>
+<DD> Query or modify the configuration options of the widget.
+If no <I>option</I> is specified, returns a list describing all of
+the available options for <I>pathName</I> (see <B>Tk_ConfigureInfo</B> for
+information on the format of this list). If <I>option</I> is specified
+with no <I>value</I>, 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 <I>option</I> is specified). If
+one or more <I>option-value</I> 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.
+<I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the <B>selectionbox</B>
+command.
+</DL>
+<DL>
+<DT> <I>pathName <B>get</B>

+<DD> Insert element(s) into either the selection entry widget or
+items list. The <I>component</I> argument may be either <B>items</B>
+or <B>selection</B>. The <I>args</I> follow the rules of either an entry
+or list widget depending on the <I>component</I> value.
+</DL>
+<DL>
+<DT> <I>pathName <B>selectitem</B>
