 # Usage:  
 #
 #   pan bind $w
 #
 #   Add pan capabilities to a tcl/tk widget, including BLT graphs.
 #
 #   Either middle click to start pan, move the mouse in the direction you
 #   want to pan followed by any click to stop, or middle press to start
 #   pan, move the mouse in the direction you want to pan followed by middle
 #   release to stop.  There is a timeout which stops panning after 10 seconds
 #   of no mouse movement.
 #
 #   pan start $w
 #
 #   Start panning the widget from current mouse position.  Use this for
 #   example from a context sensitive menu with an entry for panning.
 #
 # Resources: 
 #
 #   The .pan widget is a toplevel undecorated window of class Pan
 #   which contains a label.  The single .pan widget is shared by
 #   all graphs.  You can control its features using the usual label
 #   resources, indicated by *Pan.Label*.
 #
 #   You can control the pan repeat rate (milliseconds) and increment using
 #      *Pan.Rate: 200
 #      *Axis.ScrollIncrement: 1
 #   The step size is scaled linearly with the number of pixels.  
 #   Pan.Accel determines the number of pixels away to increase 
 #   speed by one scrollincrement per repeat.
 #      *Pan.Accel: 20
 #   Since we have an application grab, we also have a timeout set.
 #      *Pan.Timeout: 10000
 #   Alternatively, you can set the variables ::Pan::rate, ::Pan::accel
 #   and ::Pan::timeout
 #
 #   Axis.ScrollIncrement is a BLT resource. It is set to 1 at the 
 #   widgetDefault level when pan.tcl is sourced.  Be sure to source
 #   pan.tcl before creating your graphs.
 #
 #   Pan is attached to the middle mouse button.  You could for example
 #   attach it to button 1 using the following in lieu of pan bind
 #
 #      bind $w <ButtonPress-1>   { pan start %W %X %Y }
 #      bind $w <ButtonRelease-1> { pan stop %W }
 #      bind $w <B1-Motion>       { pan move %W %X %Y }
 #
 # Test using
 #    $wish pan.tcl
 # zoom into a region with the left button and use the middle button to pan.
 #
 # To do:
 #    The pan widget and the cursors are not as pretty as they might be.
 #    Keyboard support --- bind arrow keys to cursor warping events.
