Re: man page update?

Hi,
I've looked at the tcl/tk man page for the open/save dislogs.
============================================================
NAME

tk_getOpenFile, tk_getSaveFile - pop up a dialog box for the user
to select a file to open or save.

....

-parent window
-title titleString
=============================================================
Source: http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4/TkCmd/getOpenFile.htm

When I try the -message option I get:
% tk_getSaveFile
% tk_getSaveFile -message "Enter filename to save"
bad option "-message": must be -defaultextension, -filetypes, -initialdir,
-initialfile, -parent, or -title

% puts $tk_patchLevel
8.4.9

Whats wrong here?

sorry for that question, I've read the man page in detail and found:
---
-message string
Specifies a message to include in the client area of the dialog. This is
only available on the Macintosh, and only when Navigation Services are
installed.
---
I'm working on Linux, Unixes and Windozen. I hate to answer my own questions
;-)
