I have a text widget and an alias (textout) set to it. Trying to do a text widget search only 1/2 works, it does not process the variable after -count as shown below using the console:
(Desktop) 28 % textout search -regexp -count myvar "1793" 1.0 end 2.5 (Desktop) 29 % set myvar can't read "myvar": no such variable (Desktop) 30 % set widget(textout) .top17.fra19.fra21.fra23.03 (Desktop) 31 % .top17.fra19.fra21.fra23.03 search -regexp -count myvar "1793" 1.0 end 2.5 (Desktop) 32 % set myvar 4 (Desktop) 35 % $widget(textout) search -regexp -count myvar2 "1793" 1.0 end 2.5 (Desktop) 36 % set myvar2 4 Using either the actual path or the widget reference works though. Is there something I am doing wrong, or is it something to do with how the widget alias becomes a command? eric _______________________________________________ vtcl-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/vtcl-user
