destroy(n)                                  Tk Built-In Commands                                  destroy(n)



____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME
       destroy - Destroy one or more windows

SYNOPSIS
       destroy ?window window ...?
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION
       This  command deletes the windows given by the window arguments, plus all of their descendants.  If a
       window "."  is deleted then all windows will be destroyed and the application will  (normally)  exit.
       The  windows are destroyed in order, and if an error occurs in destroying a window the command aborts
       without destroying the remaining windows.  No error is returned if window does not exist.

EXAMPLE
       Destroy all checkbuttons that are direct children of the given widget:
              proc killCheckbuttonChildren {parent} {
                 foreach w [winfo children $parent] {
                    if {[winfo class $w] eq "Checkbutton"} {
                       destroy $w
                    }
                 }
              }
