Maybe, but it is really monkey patched into Morphic. Imagine the current ParagraphEditor and someone making it ten times worse. Not Yoshiki's fault, he just had to make it work with what's there. An amazing feat actually that he managed to get it to work. Michael

I guess you are right for the image support of Pango, but the VM plugin can be used without Morphic. -- Serge Stinckwich Smalltalkers do: [:it | All with: Class, (And love: it)] http://blog.doesnotunderstand.org/
