[net.micro.mac] A technical question about using a TEEdit as a structure editor

duane@cavell.UUCP (Duane Szafron) (05/22/85)

I am trying to use a TEEdit as a screen manager for a structure editor.
I would like TEClick to handle the selection range for me.
I can create my own wordBreak routine to define each of my structures
as a word.
If I could convince TEClick that a double click had occurred then
it would handle dragging correctly by extending the selection region
one word (structure) at a time.
My question is, how can I fool TEClick into thinking that a double
click and drag is occuring, when only a single click and drag is
done by the user?
