<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 578897 by <a href="/recipes/users/4190241/">Peter Mojeiko</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/python/">python</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/text_enriched/">text_enriched</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/tkinter/">tkinter</a>). </p> <p>Two things I consistently need when using a Text widget are scrollbars and pop-up menus. I've been adding them in on the fly for a while, but I think this class provides an easier way to implement these features.</p> <p>I also added a couple of very minimal themes:</p> <pre class="prettyprint"><code>1. The terminal theme replaces the standard Text cursor with a blocky-style insert cursor 2. The typewriter theme takes any text that has been inserted before it is called and types it to the widget, one character at a time </code></pre> <p>There's an example of use at the bottom of the code.</p>
