<h1>About Tk::HyperText</h1>
Tk::HyperText is a ROText-derived text widget that renders HTML code.
<h1>Why Render HTML?</h1>
The ability to render HTML code in a Tk widget is actually very useful. Instead
of dealing with all the nitty gritty stuff with text widgets and such, you can
just pipe plain old HTML code directly into the widget and it will render it
automatically into something very pretty to look at, with very little extra
time and effort on the programmer's side.<p>
<h1>Example</h1>
<pre><font size="2">my $html = $mw->Scrolled ("HyperText",
-scrollbars => 'e',
-wrap => 'word',
)->pack (-fill => 'both', -expand => 1);
$html->loadString ("<b>Hello, <u>world!</u></b>");</font>
</pre>
<h1>What Can Tk::HyperText Do?</h1>
See the <a href="demo.html">Capabilities Demonstration</a> page.
<h1>How Does Tk::HyperText Work?</h1>
Tk::HyperText uses HTML::TokeParser to parse HTML code, converting it into
Tk::Text tags for display in the text widget.
