DESCRIPTION

15       This  procedure posts a menu at a given position on the screen and con‐
16       figures Tk so that the menu and its cascaded children can be  traversed
17       with  the mouse or the keyboard.  Menu is the name of a menu widget and
18       x and y are the root coordinates at which  to  display  the  menu.   If
19       entry  is  omitted  or an empty string, the menu's upper left corner is
20       positioned at the given point.  Otherwise entry gives the index  of  an
21       entry  in  menu  and  the  menu will be positioned so that the entry is
22       positioned over the given point.
