The docs are incomplete.

Better yet, bookmark this tkinter reference (which I believe is 
mentioned at the top of the doc). It is only missing stuff new in 8.6.
http://infohost.nmt.edu/tcc/help/pubs/tkinter/web/index.html
The winfo functions are included in 26 Universal widget methods.

http://effbot.org/tkinterbook/
has some worked out examples. There is also a lot on Stackoverflow, 
which has a tkinter tag.
