RE: cursor color....

[William Gacquer <wgacquer@ubisoft.fr>]

thanks! By reading your example, I was able to deduce that the best way is
to put an extra line :

	-cursor {xterm red white} 

in multiedit.tcl, line 121 (SN 4.5.2 )

and of course, not to forget the "\" at the end of line 121 !

Best regards,

William

Take a peek at this post to see how it is done
for a plain old text widget.

You will have to figure out where to add it, I would
think that the following line in multiedit.tcl
(near line 90) would be a good place to start:

                #create the text editor
                text $editor \

Of course, the real fix would be to add a prefs option
for this color property.
