All the methods of a class are by default private methods and cannot
  be accessed by the application programmer. If you want to make a
  method public, you can include its name in the 
-method section
  of the class declaration. In our TixArrowButton example, we have
  declared that the methods 
flash, invert and invoke  are public methods and they can be accessed by the application
  programmer. All other methods of the TixArrowButton class will be
  private.
   Usually, the names of private methods start with a capital letter
  with individual words capitalized. The names of public methods
  start with a lowercase letter.
