(Tk)"><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">ScrolledText</span></tt></a> module provides a class of the same name which implements a basic text widget which has a vertical scroll bar configured to do the “right thing.” Using the <a class="reference internal" href="#module-ScrolledText" title="ScrolledText: Text widget with a vertical scroll bar. (Tk)"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">ScrolledText</span></tt></a> class is a lot easier than setting up a text widget and scroll bar directly.
