DESCRIPTION¶
This procedure creates an option menubutton whose name is
w, plus an
associated menu. Together they allow the user to select one of the values
given by the
value arguments. The current value will be stored in the
global variable whose name is given by
varName and it will also be
displayed as the label in the option menubutton. The user can click on the
menubutton to display a menu containing all of the
values and thereby
select a new value. Once a new value is selected, it will be stored in the
variable and appear in the option menubutton. The current value can also be
changed by setting the variable.
The return value from

with
w, so that the caller can change its configuration options or
manipulate it in other ways.
