tixGetBoolean(n)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, welcome to tixGetBoolean(n) from the Tix Built-In Commands manual ✨ This one is literally about getting the boolean value of a string. That’s the whole gig 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

tixGetBoolean ?-nocomplain? string

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here’s the tea ☕: tixGetBoolean returns "0" when the string is a valid TCL string for the boolean value FALSE. It returns "1" when the string is a valid TCL string for the boolean value TRUE. no cap, that’s the main character behavior 👑

• -nocomplain — when the string is not a valid TCL boolean value and you’ve passed this option, tixGetBoolean will return "0" instead of throwing a fit 😌

without -nocomplain, if the string is not a valid TCL boolean value, it will generate an error. periodt. so if you’re feeling brave, leave it off; if you want the chill “just give me a "0"” vibe, add it 🫶
