tk/messagebox

(tk/messagebox ?option value ...?)
This procedure creates and displays a message window with an application-specified message, an icon and a set of buttons. Each of the buttons in the message window is identified by a unique symbolic name (see the #:type options). After the message window is popped up, tk/messagebox waits for the user to select one of the buttons. Then it returns the symbolic name of the selected button.

The following option-value pairs are supported:

#:default name
Name gives the symbolic name of the default button for this message window ('ok', 'cancel', and so on). See #:type for a list of the symbolic names. If this option is not specified, the first button in the dialog will be made the default.
#:icon iconImage
Specifies an icon to display. IconImage must be one of the following: error, info, question or warning. If this option is not specified, then the info icon will be displayed.
#:message string
Specifies the message to display in this message box.
#:parent window
Makes window the logical parent of the message box. The message box is displayed on top of its parent window.
#:title titleString
Specifies a string to display as the title of the message box. The default value is an empty string.
#:type predefinedType
Arranges for a predefined set of buttons to be displayed.

The following values are possible for predefinedType:
