**Convenience classes**
The below classes are used for creating file/directory windows from scratch.
These do not emulate the native look-and-feel of the platform.
-.. class:: Directory(master=None, **options)
-
- Create a dialog prompting the user to select a directory.
-
.. note:: The *FileDialog* class should be subclassed for custom event
handling and behaviour.
.. data:: DIALOG_ICON
- The name of the default bitmap (``'questhead'``) displayed by a
- :class:`Dialog`.
+ The name of a bitmap (``'questhead'``) suitable for use as the *bitmap*
+ of a :class:`Dialog`.
.. class:: Dialog(master=None, cnf={}, **kw)
Display a modal dialog box built from the classic (non-themed) Tk widgets
and wait for the user to press one of its buttons.
- The options, given through *cnf* or as keyword arguments, include *title*
- (the window title), *text* (the message), *bitmap* (an icon,
- :data:`DIALOG_ICON` by default), *default* (the index of the default button)
- and *strings* (the sequence of button labels).
+ The options, given through *cnf* or as keyword arguments, are all required:
+ *title* (the window title), *text* (the message), *bitmap* (the name of a
+ bitmap icon, such as :data:`DIALOG_ICON`), *default* (the index of the
+ default button) and *strings* (the sequence of button labels).
After construction, the :attr:`!num` attribute holds the index of the button
the user pressed.
.. method:: destroy()
- Destroy the dialog window.
+ Do nothing.
+ The dialog window is destroyed automatically before the constructor
+ returns, so there is nothing left for this method to do.
.. seealso::
The message boxes are modal: each blocks until the user responds, then returns
a value that depends on the function.
The ``show*`` functions and :meth:`Message.show` return the symbolic name of
-the button the user pressed, as a string (such as :data:`OK` or :data:`YES`),
-while the ``ask*`` functions return a :class:`bool` or ``None`` (see each
-function below).

Common message box styles and layouts include but are not limited to:
.. figure:: tk_msg.png
If all four arguments are given, the window manager keeps the ratio
between ``minNumer/minDenom`` and ``maxNumer/maxDenom``; passing empty
strings removes any existing restriction.
- With no arguments, return a tuple of the four current values, or an empty
- string if no aspect restriction is in effect.
+ With no arguments, return a tuple of the four current values, or ``None``

window's internally requested size, and *widthInc* and *heightInc* are
the pixel sizes of a horizontal and vertical grid unit.
Empty strings turn off gridded management.
- With no arguments, return a tuple of the four current values, or an empty

:meth:`wm_grid` is an alias of :meth:`!grid`.

Set or query a hint to the window manager about where the window's icon
should be positioned.
Empty strings cancel an existing hint.
- With no arguments, return a tuple of the two current values, or an empty
- string if no hint is in effect.
+ With no arguments, return a tuple of the two current values, or ``None``
+ if no hint is in effect.
:meth:`wm_iconposition` is an alias of :meth:`!iconposition`.
.. method:: wm_iconwindow(pathName=None)
When this flag is set, the window is ignored by the window manager: it is
not reparented into a decorative frame and the user cannot manipulate it
through the usual window manager controls.
- With no argument, return a boolean indicating whether the flag is set.
+ With no argument, return a boolean indicating whether the flag is set,
+ or ``None`` if it has not been set.
The flag is reliably honored only when the window is first mapped or
remapped from the withdrawn state.
