Thanks for taking a look, Riki and Pavel. I don't know the answers to
your questions. I tried to test regarding Pavel's concern, but I don't
know a situation when the depth changes; I think that these LFUNs might
be disabled when using them would change the depth. I'm not sure of that
though.

Perhaps the following be more reasonable and safer?

  setCursor(cur, cur.pit(), cur.pos());

The above seems safe since I'm just changing "0" to "cur.pos()", and I
don't see how the length of the paragraph can change after this
operation.
