I've come up with a more } flexible widget based system. I'd been working on something like that off-and-on, though I haven't got as far as adding styles to it. Maybe you can give an example of how to do with your widgets what I have been trying to do with mine: I want the definition of a "word" to be context-sensitive. For example: If the cursor is within a shell word that contains a "/" character, then I want "ZLE words" to be pathname components (and transpose-words should transpose around the nearest "/" either under the cursor or to the left); but if the cursor is between two shell words, then I want "words" to be shell words, e.g., pathnames including the slashes. } By the way, I think something is a bit screwy at the moment in the } handling of cursor positions in undo. This has been an issue for a long time. Undo almost never leaves the cursor where it was before you "did," unless you were at the end of the buffer the whole time. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com Zsh: http://www.zsh.org | PHPerl Project: http://phperl.sourceforge.net
