- I'm interested in displaying formatted text (i.e. tabs and/or multiple fonts).
- I've checked out the XcRichText widget and I wasn't entirely pleased with it
- (too slow, doesn't work in reverse video, and you have to add all sorts of
- font bindings to your .Xdefaults file). Does anyone know of any alternative,
- commercial or otherwise?
-
- Isn't OSF planning to improve the XmText widget? Does anyone know what sorts
- of improvements are planned and when they'll be available?
-
- Has anyone ever had any success using a huge multi-line label inside a scrolled
- window for displaying multi-font text?
-
- Any tips would be greatly appreciated...
-
-
- Thanks in advance,
-
