My best guess: What he does is make rotext exactly like text, but change the insert and delete procs to empty one, and copy the behavior of insert and delete to ins and del, he could have named it roinsert and rodelete as well, or something else. Now when you want to change change something in that widget you have to call those new names, because when you call the old ones nothing happens. The bug about C appearing is a bug on mac i guess, when doing copying with control?-c somewhere the tcl system calls $text insert c. Because now insert doesn't do anything anymore, the bug is fixed.. It was just confusing because he used an abbreviation, maybe it would have been clearer if the names would have explained a bit more, but this isn't an abbreviation bug in that sense.
