Defaults to 0. -onvalue onValue OnValue The value to store in the associated -variable when the widget is selected. Defaults to 1. -variable variable Variable The name of a global variable whose value is linked to the widget. Defaults to the widget pathname if not specified.
    WIDGET COMMAND

    In addition to the standard cget, configure, instate, and state commands, checkbuttons support the following additional widget commands:

    pathname invoke
    Toggles between the selected and deselected states and evaluates the associated -command. If the widget is currently selected, sets the -variable to the -offvalue and deselects the widget; otherwise, sets the -variable to the -onvalue Returns the result of the -command.
    WIDGET STATES

    The widget does not respond to user input if the disabled state is set. The widget sets the selected state whenever the linked -variable is set to the widget's -onvalue, and clears it otherwise. The widget sets the alternate state whenever the linked -variable is unset. (The alternate state may be used to indicate a ``tri-state'' or ``indeterminate'' selection.)
