Hi!

How does one determine the cursor position in an
android.widget.EditText text view?

Example:

User types: "quick browm fox".

User realizes the typo (browm).

User touches the text view just after the "m", thereby positioning the
cursor there.

Now the view looks like this: "quick browm| fox" -- where | is the
cursor.

The user should be able to press a virtual "backspace" button (on the
screen), and expect to erase the "m" and then type "n".

Problem:

I would like to obtain the cursor position with something like
getCursorPosition(), but cannot find anything resembling such a
method. Knowing the position, I would be able to convert the EditText
into android.text.Editable and erase the character.

Perhaps there is a different way to do this. Any information in this
regard will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
