Map the graphical user interface to the screen

Synopsis
map(force)

Arguments

force	force map even if this `tool` seems to be mapped already
	Allowed:	boolean
	Default:	F

Returns
boolean

Description

This function should be used to map a graphical user interface to the screen. If the tool made its own top-level frame, then that frame will be mapped to the screen. Otherwise, the next highest level frame will be mapped into its parent frame, which itself may or may not be presently mapped to the screen.

A boolean value of T is returned if an action was taken to map the GUI. Otherwise, F is returned, implying that the tool believed itself to already be mapped.
