+# Tix Demostration Program
+#
+# This sample program is structured in such a way so that it can be
+# executed from the Tix demo program "widget": it must have a
+# procedure called "RunSample". It should also have the "if" statment
+# at the end of this file so that it can be run as a standalone
+# program using tixwish.
+
+# This file demonstrates the use of the tixBalloon widget, which provides
+# a interesting way to give help tips about elements in your user interface.
+# Your can display the help message in a "balloon" and a status bar widget.
