pathName is widget "path" (like .f.b2 etc), in Tkx this is ordinary widget.
All other parameters are just strings on their own.
(except for variable references and procedures, which are substituted from Perl
to Tcl without you noticing it)
So you should interpret
pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?
as
$widget->configure();
or
$widget->configure("option");
or
$widget->configure("option", "value","option","value ...");
