The \module{ScrolledText} module provides a class of the same name

which implements a basic text widget which has a vertical scroll bar

configured to do the ``right thing.'' Using the \class{ScrolledText}

class is a lot easier than setting up a text widget and scroll bar

directly. The constructor is the same as that of the

\class{Tkinter.Text} class.

The text widget and scrollbar are packed together in a \class{Frame},

and the methods of the \class{Pack} geometry manager are acquired from

the \class{Frame} object. This allows the \class{ScrolledText} widget

to be used directly to achieve most normal geometry management

behavior.

Should more specific control be necessary, the following attributes

are available:

\begin{memberdesc}[ScrolledText]{frame}

The frame which surrounds the text and scroll bar widgets.

\end{memberdesc}

\begin{memberdesc}[ScrolledText]{vbar}

The scroll bar widget.

\end{memberdesc}
