Ugh. How many beautiful projects have died because of Paragraph and
associated editors?!

A damn lot, I can tell you.��

This is where my vim keybindings experiment came
screeching to a halt.

What are the main problems with Text, Paragraph, ... and other old TextComponents?

1. No support for vector graphics

2. Most operations are bound to text size.

��

And how are these solved with TxText?

��

1. By implementing new view, rendered by Athens

2. By introducing new model for storing text to overcome mentioned limitations.
