Huh? "frame .f -container ..." Wow, what a gamut of windowing widgets that

Why all the hand wringing?

Thanks for the concrete demonstration of what makes integrating an
editor such a PITA.


Looks pretty simple to me. Four lines. Perhaps your PITA threshold is
lower than mine.

I find it hard to believe that y'all are this obtuse, so I'm clearly not explaining the issue.

Okay, here's a concrete task. I'm going to pick on Lan because he actually made the mistake of providing code ... ;)

So here's the task:

The goal is an email window. It has a Entry widget which holds the To: address. It has a container widget which holds the vi instance.

How do I select the address in the Entry widget and insert it into the vi instance?

Actual steps please.

The key question: How do we identify what the character encoding is for the Entry widget and for the vi instance and how do we harmonize the two?
