I stand partially corrected, David. Browsing through the source code reveals at line 431 of kabikaboo.py a commented-out section of code that, when uncommented, activates the use of Control+B, Control+I, and Control+U for Bold, Italic, and Underline. At line 2882 of the same file there appears to be code for a font editing toolbar(!!!), although I have no idea how to enable it.
In fact, it looks like there's even preliminary code for bulleting/numbering, although the only evidence of it looks like toolbar stuff at about line 927 of kabikaboo.py Unfortunately, the current filesave system doesn't appear to save text with formatting, but at least it's more tenable knowing that this stuff exists in the source code (albeit unused(?) at the moment). Will keep you posted if I figure out anything new...
