       ciated with tkwin's main window.  If there is an option for tkwin  that
       matches  the  given name or class, then it is returned in the form of a
       TkUid.  If multiple options match name and class,  then  the  highest-
       priority one is returned.  If no option matches, then NULL is returned.

       TkGetOption ahs pin rltd o ki s ta  scesv  cls       for the same tkwin will execute much more quickly than successive calls
       for different windows.
