Tcl Source Code

A few tk man pages (doc/*.n) incorrectly list some 
WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS under STANDARD OPTIONS, which 
causes tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl to generate bogus 
links to the HTML page for the options command.  I 
say bogus rather than broken because the links appear 
to work, taking you to the options page, but cannot 
position properly within the page because there is 
(correctly so) no NAME tag for the given option.

For example see 
http://tcl.activestate.com/man/tcl8.4/TkCmd/message.htm 
and click the -width link 
(http://tcl.activestate.com/man/tcl8.4/TkCmd/options.htm#M-width).
