DESCRIPTION

This procedure is invoked to add an option to the database associated
with tkwin's main window. Name contains the option being specified
and consists of names and/or classes separated by asterisks or dots,
in the usual X format. Value contains the text string to associate
with name; this value will be returned in calls to Tk_GetOption.
Priority specifies the priority of the value; when options are
queried using Tk_GetOption, the value with the highest priority is
returned. Priority must be between 0 and TK_MAX_PRIO (100). Some
common priority values are:

TK_WIDGET_DEFAULT_PRIO
Used for default values hard-coded into widgets.

TK_STARTUP_FILE_PRIO
Used for options specified in application-specific startup
files.

TK_USER_DEFAULT_PRIO
Used for options specified in user-specific defaults files,
such as .Xdefaults, resource databases loaded into the X
server, or user-specific startup files.

TK_INTERACTIVE_PRIO
Used for options specified interactively after the application
starts running.
