Hello. Sorry for the late reply. For some reason, your response didn't
show up in the same thread as my question, and I only noticed it now.

I have already looked through the TextView source code. The drawing of
the text in the view is not done within that object. A subsidiary
object handles this (I think it's the Paint object or one of _its_
subsidiary objects).

I have been digging through the source code of Paint and other
objects, and the code for rendering the text is not easily isolated.

Eventually, I'll be able to reverse engineer this, but is it really
necessary to go through this excessive amount of work to simply find
out prgrammatically what text is actually showing in a TextView?

I repeat my question: does anyone know of a way to query some existing
object to obtain this information?
