Some of the replies I've had to previous questions about the R3 textwidget have mentioned that the R4 version is going to have a much simpler interface. Can anyone answer the following questions: 1) How long before we see R4? 2) Does anyone have any advanced documentation on how to use the R4 textwidget that they'd be willing to send me? I've been trying to fathom out how xmh and xedit manage their textwidgets, and have managed to get totally confused. If the R4 widgets are going to be available soonish, and really are simpler to use, I can probably save myself a lot of work. Thanks for any help, Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chris Rouch crouch@axion.bt.co.uk RT3141, BTRL, Martlesham Heath, Ipswich, England. +44 473 646093 unspoilt by progress

1) How long before we see R4?
Still expected to be out around the end of the year.
2) Does anyone have any advanced documentation on how to use the R4
textwidget that they'd be willing to send me?
Sorry, you won't see docs until R4 is made public.
