Here's a right &*^%$# with *textField*s:

I have thousands of scripts that go something a bit like this:

*setthetextoftheselectedTexttonumToCodePoint**(107)*

and when one is activated it pops the designated Unicode Glyph *INTO* the place
in the text inwith a textField where the user has set the cursor . . .

and THAT is *groovy* . . .

BUT, then the cursor jumps to the end of the text line which is *extremely 
ungroovy*

as I want it to remain straight after the glyph it has just inserted in the 
textField . . .
