> On Win2k, if I use GtkScintilla instead of GtkText for text entry boxes: GtkScintilla's way more sophisticated than you need for this. It's a full-on editor. http://gtk.php.net/manual/en/scn.gtkscintilla.php - just look through that function list.. However GtkText is b0rked on win32, as you'll be able to see for yourself. > 1.

The win32 version is effectively a port of PHP-GTK - there's nothing on win32 that you can't do on *nix, it's more likely you'd see problems the other way around (i.e. developing on *nix and then distributing on doze). > 2. Can I do the equivalent of set_word_wrap on GtkScintilla as I can on > GtkText again, see manual. I realise it's not hugely helpful, but it does at least tell you (most of) the functions that are available, and there's even a useful usernote there from The Other Ben regards wrapping. (I really need to set line length and have the text scroll down > vs. across)? > > 3. Any references _out_ there? Tried google? GtkScintilla is a project in its own right, and so is Scintilla itself - I find it difficult to believe we're the only team with even a partial function list! > > Been through the docs and have tried a bunch of the methods.
