(tye)Re2: TK Problem (me again)

[tye]

foreach ($textline = <LOG>) {

doesn't do what you want. Perhaps:

foreach my $textline ( <LOG> ) {
# or, much better:
while(  defined( $textline= <LOG> )  ) {

I was thinking of using nearly your original code inside of insert_lines(), assuming that that code set the default color for new insertions. I guess you'd have to restore the default color in the else clause or at the bottom of the loop (or in a continue block).
