DESCRIPTION

The ctext package provides the ctext widget which is an enhanced text widget with support for configurable syntax highlighting and some extra commands.

Ctext overloads the text widget and provides new commands, named highlight, copy, paste,cut, append, and edit. It also provides several commands that allow you to define classes. Each class corresponds to a tag in the widget.

COMMANDS

ctext pathName ?options?
Creates and configures a ctext widget.

HIGHLIGHTING

Highlighting is controlled with text widget tags, that are called highlight classes. The class is a tag name and can be configured like any text widget tag. Four types of highlight classes are supported. All highlight classes are automatically used by the highlight method of the widget.
::ctext::addHighlightClass pathName class color keywordlist
Add a highlighting class class to the ctext widget pathName. The highligthing will be done with the color color. All words in the keywordlist will be highlighted.
 
         # highlight some tcl keywords
         ::ctext::addHighlightClass .t tclkeywords red [list set info interp uplevel upvar]]
 
 
::ctext::addHighlightClassWithOnlyCharStart pathName class color char
Add a highlighting class class to the ctext widget pathName. The highligthing will be done with the color color. All words starting with char will be highlighted.
 
         ::ctext::addHighlightClassWithOnlyCharStart .t vars blue \$
 
 
::ctext::addHighlightClassForSpecialChars pathName class color charstring
Add a highlighting class class to the ctext widget pathName. The highligthing will be done with the color color. All chars in charstring will be highlighted.
::ctext::addHighlightClassForRegexp pathName class color pattern
Add a highlighting class class to the ctext widget pathName. The highligthing will be done with the color color. All text parts matching the regexp pattern will be highligthed.
::ctext::clearHighlightClasses pathName
Remove all highlight classes from the widget pathName.
::ctext::getHighlightClasses pathName
List all highlight classes for the widget pathName.
::ctext::deleteHighlightClass pathName class
Delete the highlight class class from the widget pathName
::ctext::enableComments enable
Enable C comment highlighting. The class for c-style comments is _cComment. The C comment highlighting is disabled by default.
::ctext::disableComments enable
Disable C comment highlighting.
