NAME
       tkerror - Command invoked to process background errors

SYNOPSIS
       tkerror message
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________


DESCRIPTION
       Note:  as  of Tk 4.1 the tkerror command has been renamed to bgerror because the event loop (which is
       what usually invokes it) is now part of Tcl.  For backward compatibility the bgerror provided by  the
       current  Tk  version  still  tries  to call tkerror if there is one (or an auto loadable one), so old
       script defining that error handler should still work, but you should anyhow modify  your  scripts  to
       use bgerror instead of tkerror because that support for the old name might vanish in the near future.
       If that call fails, bgerror posts a dialog showing the error and offering to see the stack  trace  to
       the user. If you want your own error management you should directly override bgerror instead of tker-ror. tkerror.
       ror.  Documentation for bgerror is available as part of Tcl's documentation.
