The Grip widget provides a small rectangular region in which user input
events (such as ButtonPress or ButtonRelease) may be handled.  The most
common use for the Grip widget is as an attachment point for visually
repositioning an object, such as the pane border in a Paned widget.

All routines on this list are called whenever the \fBGripAction\fP
action routine is invoked.  The \fIcall_data\fP contains all
information passed to the action routine.  A detailed description
is given below in the \fBGrip Actions\fP section.

Grip Actions
.IN "Grip widget" "actions"
.LP
The Grip widget does not declare any default event translation bindings,
but it does declare a single action routine named \fBGripAction\fP.  The
.IN "Grip widget" "GripAction routine"
client specifies an arbitrary event translation table, optionally giving
parameters to the \fBGripAction\fP routine.
.LP
The \fBGripAction\fP routine executes the callbacks on the
\fBcallback\fP list, passing as \fIcall_data\fP a pointer to a
\fBXawGripCallData\fP structure, defined in the Grip widget's application
header file.

In this structure, the \fIevent\fP is a pointer to the input event that
triggered the action.  \fIparams\fP and \fInum_params\fP give the string
parameters specified in the translation table for the particular event
binding.

The following is an example of a translation table that uses the GripAction:
