I think you're mis-quoting me. The example was: "The quick brown fox jumped over the |lazy dog." Replace 'brown' with 'red' and leave the cursor before 'lazy'. The problem, of course, is that the text is stored in a std::vector and insert and erase operations invalidate all iterators. Thus, the iterators (cursors) must somehow be regenerated after the erase/insert operation. Things get messy when there are multiple BufferViews, each with their own cursor. -- Angus
