determining if cursor is in last line of a field

[dunbarx at aol.com]

What Mark meant was that the formattedText reconfigures the displayed text as if it had hard returns in just the right places. His script uses the formattedText...


Anyone remember the "wordWrap" XFCN in HC? I never knew who wrote it.

Now I'm confused:  does selectedLine() use hard cr's instead of the
displayed line in the field?  I had been assuming the latter due to the
lack of mention of cr in the dictionary page, as it gets mentioned in
others where it is used.
