Introduction &tork; is a program that lets you do absolutely nothing. Please report any problems or feature requests to the &kde; mailing lists. Using &tork; Here's a screenshot of &tork; Screenshot More &tork; features It slices! It dices! and it comes with a free toaster! The Squiggle Tool Squiggle is used to draw squiggly lines all over the &tork; main window. It's not a bug, it's a feature!

XtUnmanageChildren Xt - Geometry Management XtUnmanageChildren remove a list of children from a parent widget's managed list. widgetsremoving XtUnmanageChildren 4 March 1996 void XtUnmanageChildren(children, num_children) WidgetList children; Cardinal num_children; Inputs children Specifies an array of child widgets. Each child must be of class RectObj or any subclass thereof. num_children Specifies the number of elements in children. Description XtUnmanageChildren() unmaps the specified widgets and removes them from their parent's geometry management. The widgets will disappear from the screen, and (depending on its parent) may no longer have screen space allocated for them. Each of the widgets in the children array must have the same parent. See the “Algorithm” section below for full details of the widget unmanagement procedure. Usage Unmanaging widgets is the usual method for temporarily making them invisible. They can be re-managed with XtManageChildren(). You can unmap a widget, but leave it under geometry management by calling XtUnmapWidget(). You can destroy a widget's window without destroying the widget by calling XtUnrealizeWidget(). You can destroy a widget completely with XtDestroyWidget(). If you are only going to unmanage a single widget, it is more convenient to call XtUnmanageChild(). It is often more convenient to call XtUnmanageChild() several times than it is to declare and initialize an array of widgets to pass to XtUnmanageChildren(). Calling XtUnmanageChildren() is more efficient, however, because it only calls the parent's change_managed() method once. Algorithm XtUnmanageChildren() performs the following: - Ignores the child if it already is unmanaged or is being destroyed. - Otherwise, if the child is realized, it makes it nonvisible by unmapping it. Structures The WidgetList type is simply an array of widgets: typedef Widget *WidgetList; Questions and Answers &reporting.bugs; &updating.documentation; My Mouse doesn't work. How do I quit &tork;? You silly goose! Check out the Commands Section for the answer. Why can't I twiddle my documents? You can only twiddle your documents if you have the foobar.lib installed.

Foobar.lib is required in order to support the advanced &tork; features. &tork; uses about 5 megs of memory to run, but this may vary depending on your platform and configuration. All required libraries as well as &tork; itself can be found on The &tork; home page. You can find a list of changes at http://apps.kde.org/tork. Compilation and Installation &install.compile.documentation; Configuration Don't forget to tell your system to start the dtd dicer-toaster daemon first, or &tork; won't work ! &documentation.index;
