    I am on Linux and wm state $::w zoomed doesn't work.

    There really is no way to maximize an application in Linux, is there?

    TIA

    try : wm attributes $::w -zoomed 1

    Ps: I don’t have Linux to test

    from man wm, under wm state:

    "... or (Windows and Mac OS X only) zoomed"


    There really is no way to maximize an application in Linux, is there?


    proc zoom {w} {
    set maxwidth [winfo screenwidth $w]
    set maxheight [winfo screenheight $w]
    wm geometry $w [format {=%dx%d+0+0} $maxwidth $maxheight]
    update idle
    }


    TIA
