+ * generic/tkCmds.c (Tk_WinfoObjCmd): Added check for
+ TK_ANONYMOUS_WINDOW flag in the [winfo children] subcommand; if
+ set, the window will not be printed in the list of children.
+
+ * doc/CrtWindow.3: Added entry for Tk_CreateAnonymousWindow.
+
+ * generic/tkWindow.c
+ (Tk_CreateAnonymousWindow): New API for creating anonymous
+ windows. These windows are manipulable from C, but not from Tcl,
+ because they have no pathname associated with them. They are used
+ initially by widgets that do rubber-band resizing (panedwindow,
+ multi-column listbox, etc.), and may be useful for other widgets
+ as well (dropbox, combobox).
+ (Tk_DestroyWindow): Added check for TK_ANONYMOUS_WINDOW flag when
+ determining whether to generate a DestroyNotify event.
+
+ * generic/tkStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tkDecls.h: Regen'd from tk.decls.
+
+ * generic/tk.decls: Added Tk_CreateAnonymousWindow declaration.
+
+ * generic/tk.h: Added TK_ANONYMOUS_WINDOW flag for Tk_Window's.
