Hi Brett,

thanks for your reply. 

Your example may work when there is a defined word like "somwhere" in the
text to be able to search for with find. But, what i need is to insert text at
the cursor position in the text.

little example:

"this is text"

when the cursor stands between "is" and "text" i want to be able to insert
"my" at this position so that the result is "this is my text".

Is there any way to achieve this with rebol?
