Hi everybody,
I'm looking for some directions, while programming a very simple
editor (supporting basic formatting)
The window where the user writes is a Text widget (named: text), where
I put a tag 'b' to set the text where this tag applies to bold.
This is not a problem when I apply the bold to a selection:
text.tag_add('b', SEL_FIRST,SEL_LAST)
I have instead two problems when I just want to switch on/off the bold
while typing. To switch it on the only way I found is this:
text.insert(INSERT, ' ', 'b' )
text.mark_set("insert", INSERT+'-1c')
notice that I have to insert TWO spaces. If I insert one, the bold
doesnt apply. If I insert '', my cursor goes back one char!
My second problem is how to switch it off, when I'm writing within a
bolded region - and for this I havent the slightest idea...
Thanks for any help!
alessandro
