[PD] pd.tk: how to get rid of scrollbars and menus?

[Roman Haefeli]

hi pat and andre

thank you, guys, for your suggestions. i actually want to have my patch
windows without menus/sb and i don't want to make my patches have no
m/sb on other peoples computers, that is why i would like to avoid the
toxy approach.

however, meanwhile i could solve it with a little help from #tcl.

to get rid of the menu, i uncommented the whole section from:

# the file menu 
line 939 in pd.tk of pd-vanilla 0.41.4

to:

# WM protocol
line 1203


in order to remove the scrollbars, i changed the section:

<start section>

   wm geometry $name $geometry
   canvas $name.c -width $width -height $height -background white \
       -yscrollcommand "$name.scrollvert set" \
       -xscrollcommand "$name.scrollhort set" \
       -scrollregion [concat 0 0 $width $height] 

    scrollbar $name.scrollvert -command "$name.c yview"
    scrollbar $name.scrollhort -command "$name.c xview" \
        -orient horizontal

    pack $name.scrollhort -side bottom -fill x
    pack $name.scrollvert -side right -fill y
    pack $name.c -side left -expand 1 -fill both

<end section>

to:

<start section>

   wm geometry $name $geometry
   canvas $name.c -width $width -height $height -background white
#       -yscrollcommand "$name.scrollvert set" \
#       -xscrollcommand "$name.scrollhort set" \
#       -scrollregion [concat 0 0 $width $height] 

#   scrollbar $name.scrollvert -command "$name.c yview"
#   scrollbar $name.scrollhort -command "$name.c xview" \
#       -orient horizontal

#   pack $name.scrollhort -side bottom -fill x
#   pack $name.scrollvert -side right -fill y
    pack $name.c -side left -expand 1 -fill both

<end section>

those changes seem to work, while they most likely are a very ugly
kludge. i get a en error from time to time (e.g. 'invalid command name
".x8277008.m.windows"') in stderr, but they don't seem to cause any
harm.
