=head1 DESCRIPTION

Tk::Bounded is used with Perl's multiple inheritance to override some methods
normally inherited from Tk::Derived and Tk::Widget. It also specifies level 1
bound tags for caller class.

Tk::Bounded should precede any Tk widgets in the class's base class definition.

Tk::Bounded's main purpose is to apply wrappers to C<configure> and C<cget>
methods of widgets to allow the derived widget to add to or modify behaviour
of the configure options supported by the base widget.

The bounded class should normally override the C<Populate> method provided by
Tk::Bounded and call C<ConfigSpecs> to declare configure options.

The public methods provided by Tk::Bounded are as follows:

=over 4

=item -E<gt>ConfigSpecs(-I<key> =E<gt> [I<kind>, I<name>, I<Class>, I<default>],
...)
