-By default, the style name is the same as the widget's class;

 .SH DESCRIPTION
 The \fBttk::style\fR command takes the following arguments:
 .TP
-\fBttk::style configure \fIstyle\fR ?\fI-option \fR?\fIvalue option value...\fR? ?
+\fBttk::style configure \fIstyle\fR ?\fI\-option \fR?\fIvalue option value...\fR? ?
+.
 Sets the default value of the specified option(s) in \fIstyle\fR.
 .TP
-\fBttk::style map \fIstyle\fR ?\fI-option\fR { \fIstatespec value\fR } ... ?
-Sets dynamic values of the specified option(s) in \fIstyle\fR.
-Each \fIstatespec / value\fR pair is examined in order;
-the value corresponding to the first matching \fIstatespec\fR
-is used.
+\fBttk::style map \fIstyle\fR ?\fI\-option\fR { \fIstatespec value\fR } ... ?
+.
+Sets dynamic values of the specified option(s) in \fIstyle\fR. Each
+\fIstatespec / value\fR pair is examined in order; the value corresponding to
+the first matching \fIstatespec\fR is used.
 .TP
-\fBttk::style lookup \fIstyle\fR \fI-option \fR?\fIstate \fR?\fIdefault\fR??
-Returns the value specified for \fI-option\fR in style \fIstyle\fR
-in state \fIstate\fR, using the standard lookup rules for element options.
-\fIstate\fR is a list of state names; if omitted, 
-it defaults to all bits off (the ``normal'' state).
-If the \fIdefault\fR argument is present, it is used as a fallback
-value in case no specification for \fI-option\fR is found.
+\fBttk::style lookup \fIstyle\fR \fI\-option \fR?\fIstate\fR? ?\fIdefault\fR?
+.
+Returns the value specified for \fI\-option\fR in style \fIstyle\fR in state
+\fIstate\fR, using the standard lookup rules for element options. \fIstate\fR
+is a list of state names; if omitted, it defaults to all bits off (the

 .\" Otherwise -- signal error? return empty string?  Leave unspecified for now. 
 .TP
 \fBttk::style layout \fIstyle\fR ?\fIlayoutSpec\fR?
-Define the widget layout for style \fIstyle\fR.  
-See "\fBLAYOUTS\fR" below for the format of \fIlayoutSpec\fR.
-If \fIlayoutSpec\fR is omitted, return the layout specification
-for style \fIstyle\fR.

 \fBttk::style element create\fR \fIelementName\fR \fItype\fR ?\fIargs...\fR?
-Creates a new element in the current theme of type \fItype\fR.
-The only built-in element type is \fIimage\fR (see \fIimage(n)\fR),
-although themes may define other element types 
-(see \fBTtk_RegisterElementFactory\fR).

 .TP 
 \fBttk::style element names\fR

-\fBttk::style theme create\fR \fIthemeName\fR ?\fB-parent \fIbasedon\fR? ?\fB-settings \fIscript...\fR ?
-Creates a new theme.  It is an error if \fIthemeName\fR already exists.
-If \fI-parent\fR is specified, the new theme will inherit
-styles, elements, and layouts from the parent theme \fIbasedon\fB.
-If \fI-settings\fR is present, \fIscript\fR is evaluated in the
-context of the new theme as per \fBttk::style theme settings\fR.
+\fBttk::style theme create\fR \fIthemeName\fR ?\fB\-parent \fIbasedon\fR? ?\fB\-settings \fIscript...\fR ?

 \fBttk::style theme settings \fIthemeName\fR \fIscript\fR
-Temporarily sets the current theme to \fIthemeName\fR,

-Typically \fIscript\fR simply defines styles and elements,

 .SH LAYOUTS
-A \fIlayout\fR specifies a list of elements, each followed
-by one or more options specifying how to arrange the element.
-The layout mechanism uses a simplified version of the \fBpack\fR
-geometry manager: given an initial cavity,
-each element is allocated a parcel.
