Is there any documentation on the procedural interfaces to the sources and sinks for text widgets? I have an application where I would like to build up a history file displayed in a text widget which would allow users to scroll back through the file and view previously entered commands. I would like to be able to start with a relatively small amount of space allocated to the history buffer and increase it as more commands are entered. But looking at the text widget doc it appears that this size can't be increased. Doe anyone have any suggestions. Mark Patrick Ardent Computer uunet!ardent!mlp

No, there is none at present. It's only an excuse, but one of the reasons is that the interface needs to change to support selections.
