I am getting strange results from the scroll bar when I use this
widget. As I drag the thumb it changes sizes even though the number of
lines of text doesn't change. It also lets the thumb practically
disappear if I pull it to the bottom of the scroll bar region. Is this
a bug in the AsciiTextWidget or my error in creating the widget? Does
anyone have any info on this? I have included the code I use to create
the textwidget....
Thanks for any help.

The scrollbar is actually counting characters, not lines. It should also not let you scroll off the bottom.
