Oops - Do you think I should fix the POD and put out a 0.51 ?

You cannot bookmark a blank line. (yet?!) This is clearly documented. If you
are bookmarking interactively , you will get a warning if you try to do
this. Programmatically however, I just fail quietly with no warnings. So,
you must instead ensure that the line you intend to bookmark contains at
least 1 character. See fix below.

Image support will be in v0.6. This update was long overdue as it was - and
I just took the easy route for now - hence - the three shapes. Simply by
switching to the Canvas - I have increased flexibility for expansion and
images will be quite simple to implement.

Again - I took the easy route here. I am still having problems with my
CursorControl demo. Until I fix *that* - I did not want to attempt another
*failed* demo. I think I finally figured out it has to do with name clashes
of subroutines amongst the various other modules. I wanted to chat with
Steve about this before I tried to fix it again.

sub set_bookmark {
my $rtext = $lntext->Subwidget('scrolled');
my ($search) = split(/\./, $rtext->search('-regexp','-nocase','--',"We
need", '1.0', 'end'));
return unless $search;
print "Adding bookmark at $search\n";
$lntext->addbookmark($search);
}
In doing this - I have found that the 'search' method didn't work as
advertised with the $lntext. I'm not sure why? It kept returning 8 no matter
what I put in. This is indeed the type of bug I need to find out. This is
also the reason I advertised ALL the widgets - so you have complete control
over the methods and look/feel.
For the "search" method - you have to use Subwidget to get the "real" text
widget. But you have to remember that the lines will not update if you go
directly to the real text widget method. So - again - I did a CYA by
providing a public method to force a line update "if" you need it. Here you
don't because the addbookmark method did it for you.
