DESCRIPTION
       The pie peripheral style labeler object is used as a slice label placer for a pie object and is passed to
       the pie constructor via its -labeler option (see the pie class manual).

       The slice description text labels are arranged in 2 columns below the pie  graphics,  whereas  the  slice
       values are placed next to the slice and actually follow the slice as the pie is updated. Each description
       label text is placed to the right of a rectangle, the background color of which matches its corresponding
       slice. Each description label is actually a canvasLabel object.

       There is no need to delete a piePeripheralLabeler object as it is automatically handled by the pie class.

       stooop::new piePeripheralLabeler canvas ?options?
              Creates  a piePeripheralLabeler object in the specified Tk canvas. The piePeripheralLabeler object
              identifier is returned (refered to as piePeripheralLabelerObject in this document).

       switched::configure piePeripheralLabelerObject ?options?
              Configures a piePeripheralLabeler object or returns all the options with their current  values  if
              no options are passed as parameters.

       switched::cget piePeripheralLabelerObject option
              Returns an option value for the specified piePeripheralLabeler object.


OPTIONS
       -font value
              Specifies a font for the slice labels. If not specified, the default font is system dependent.

       -justify value
              Specifies  how  to  justify  labels within their own column. Must be one of left, center or right.
              Defaults to left. For example, if justification is  right,  all  column  labels  right  edges  are
              aligned.

       -offset value
              Specifies  the  distance  between  the pie graphics and the closest slice label. This value may be
              specified in any of the forms described in the canvas COORDINATES manual section.

       -smallfont
              Specifies a font for the slice values. It is usually  a  small  font  in  order  to  avoid  values
              overlapping  when  2  slices are very close to each other. If not specified, the description label
              font (-font option) is used.

       -widestvaluetext
              Specifies a string of maximum width for slice values (placed around the pie next to  the  slices),
              so  that enough room is allocated for these value labels when the pie width and height are set. It
              defaults to 00.0. For example, it could be set to "00.00 %".

       The labeler has the following specific tag (see the canvas manual page ITEM IDS AND TAGS section for more
