>Summary: tkMessageBox functions reject type and ico

Initial Comment:
Python 2.2.x -> Python 2.3 
I've noticed a small separation between documentation 
and reality in tkMessageBox.

According to Fredrik Lundh's documentation of 
tkMessageBox (in the various online guides & ?printed) 
you can send type and icon keywords to 
tkMessageBox's convenience functions (like askquestion)

However this doesn't work. Don't know if it used to.
So I'm not sure if the docs should be amended or amend 
the code (originally submitted by Fredrik).

An attempt to clear up this bug but was rejected (I 
think, because they also added a feature). see BUG 
761144 https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?
func=detail&atid=105470&aid=761144&group_id=5470)


A simple way to clean up this would be to amend the 
first three lines of _show as attached.
