Hi,
Im trying to use a TextEditor from Curses:
Shawn Boyette > Curses-UI-0.9609 > Curses::UI::TextEditor
I write data into the TextEditor widget and have added a scrollbar using the code below:
my $infodialog = $infowin->add(
'infodialog',
'TextViewer',
-wrapping => 1,
-vscrollbar => 'right',
);
$infodialog->focus();
sub info{
my ($infoText, $infodialog) = @_;
my ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) =
localtime(time);
my $fqInfoText = "[$hour:$min:$sec]-" . $infoText;
my $currentText = $infodialog->get();
$infodialog->text($currentText . $fqInfoText);
$infodialog->draw();
}
How do I always keep the scrollbar at the bottom? I want the user to always see the newest text in the TextViewer.
I have found the following in the documentation:
"<end>
Call the 'cursor-end' routine: go to the end of the text."
Can I "send" a fake key press of the end key before I call draw to update the Textviewer to show the newest entries?
How is this usually done?
