<div id="section1" class="doctools_section"><h2><a name="section1">Description</a></h2>
<p>The <b class="package">ctext</b> package provides the ctext widget which
is an enhanced text widget with support for configurable syntax
highlighting and some extra commands.</p>
<p>Ctext overloads the text widget and provides
new commands, named <b class="method">highlight</b>, <b class="method">copy</b>, <b class="method">paste</b>,<b class="method">cut</b>,
<b class="method">append</b>, and <b class="method">edit</b>. It also provides several
commands that allow you to define classes.
Each class corresponds to a tag in the widget.</p>

<div id="section3" class="doctools_section"><h2><a name="section3">HIGHLIGHTING</a></h2>
<p>Highlighting is controlled with text widget tags, that are called highlight classes.
The <i class="arg">class</i> is a tag name and can be configured like any text widget tag.
Four types of highlight classes are supported. All highlight classes are automatically used
by the <b class="method">highlight</b> method of the widget.</p>
