Sizing a tk_messageBox

[HydroBob]

I have several long lines of text that tk_messageBox cuts at around 40 characters. I
would like to extend the length to around 80 characters and have had no luck in doing
so. I have also tried tk_dialog but couldn't get it to print longer lines either. I need to
have a button on the bottom and these are the only 2 methods I can find that allow
this. Anyone have any hints on how I can do this?

Thanks in advance...
Bob

What version of Tcl and what OS are you using? I just tried tk_messageBox with around 150 characters and it worked just fine (Windows2k/Tcl_v842).

I should have been clearer in my question. All my characters get printed it's
just that the tk_messageBox puts line breaks at around 40 characters. I would
like to have 80 characters per line.

I am using version 8.3.2 on a Linux box.

Thanks for the help and sorry for the confusion
