NAME
       tk_popup - Post a popup menu

SYNOPSIS
       tk_popup menu x y ?entry?
______________________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION
       This procedure posts a menu at a given position on the screen and
       configures Tk so that the menu and its cascaded children can be
       traversed with the mouse or the keyboard.  Menu is the name of a menu
       widget and x and y are the root coordinates at which to display the
       menu.  If entry is omitted or an empty string, the menu's upper left
       corner is positioned at the given point.  Otherwise entry gives the
       index of an entry in menu and the menu will be positioned so that the
       entry is positioned over the given point.

EXAMPLE
       How to attach a simple popup menu to a widget.
              # Create a menu
              set m [menu .popupMenu]
              $m add command -label "Example 1" -command bell
              $m add command -label "Example 2" -command bell

              # Create something to attach it to
              pack [label .l -text "Click me!"]

              # Arrange for the menu to pop up when the label is clicked
              bind .l <1> {tk_popup .popupMenu %X %Y}
