- In oodles-of-utils (avail from the cambridge archives) there is
- a class te-view that will let you do what you want. You can change
- the font, size, style, & color of arbitrary selections within it.
-
- Unfortunately, there are problems if you try to use more than one
- te-view in the same window. The cause isn't obvious (to me) and I
- haven't had time to really dig in and find it. I suspect it has to
- do with the protocals(undocumented) for switching from one current
- key handle to another. Or maybe QD has some wierdness if there is
- more than one TERecord for a port.
