🎀 EXAMPLE 🎀

look at this little moment, so clean:

package require widget::superframe ; # or widget::all
pack [widget::superframe .f -type separator -text "SuperFrame:"]

not me pulling in widget::superframe when widget::all would also do it — the comment is right there, # or widget::all. options, bestie. we love options. 🌈
