Terry J. Reedy added the comment: By reading http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.6/TkCmd/text.htm I discovered that Text.yview(index) puts the line with index at the top of the windows, given enough line below to fill the window. This fixes another glitch. Still left: the original 3 items (msg251181),

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Had to adjust number of line by 3/4 because average 4/3 as high as in editor due to taller header lines and extra interline spacing. Net result for me, using 12 pitch in editor also, is box size within 5%. -- ___ P

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Another minor glitch: in a browser, each press of up or down arrow, when there is no cursor (after clicking outside of an entry box like this one), moves text up or down. (3 lines for me in FF, even though wheel click moved more) In an editor, each press move

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Fixed. I added a light background as with Sphinx html. I am delighted with how well this is working so far. I like the little always-there [TOC] button better than the browser sidebar. Besides making it easy to verify the look of doc changes, I think it loo
