Hi. I have a question about Tkx and his widgets.
I am creating a user interface for a conversion program. Users should insert some parameters in the first 3 windows opened, and then start the conversion. I was wondering if it's possible in Tkx to give to the label, or entry, widget an attribute similar to the attribute "title" of the HTML's links.

It means that when the user puts the cursor over the widget("hover") a little box explaining what to insert appears, and disappears when the cursor lefts the widget.This would easily help the user without havin to pass by a contextual menu or a guide file.
I've been looking on the net but I could not find a similar attribute.

Thanks for helping me!
