WIDGET COMMAND
       In addition to the standard cget, configure, identify, instate, and
       state commands, checkbuttons support the following additional widget
       commands:

       pathname invoke
              Toggles between the selected and deselected states and evaluates
              the associated -command.  If the widget is currently selected,
              sets the -variable to the -offvalue and deselects the widget;
              otherwise, sets the -variable to the -onvalue Returns the result
              of the -command.

WIDGET STATES
       The widget does not respond to user input if the disabled state is set.
       The widget sets the selected state whenever the linked -variable is set
       to the widget's -onvalue, and clears it otherwise.  The widget sets the
       alternate state whenever the linked -variable is unset.  (The alternate
       state may be used to indicate a "tri-state" or "indeterminate"
       selection.)

STANDARD STYLES
       Ttk::checkbutton widgets support the Toolbutton style in all standard
       themes, which is useful for creating widgets for toolbars.
