Re: pack or grid (or the other way around)?

In addition to what Rich wrote, here is what you *cant* do:

  frame .f
  label .f.l1
  label .f.l2
 
  pack .f.l1
  grid .f.l2
  => error: cannot use geometry manager grid inside .f which already has slaves managed by pack

  grid .f.l2
  pack .f.l1
  => error: cannot use geometry manager pack inside .f which already has slaves managed by grid

But .f itself can be managed by either grid or pack, regardless of what
you use to pack/grid widgets 'inside' .f
