1. Use xyouts or IDLgrText. Sure it can be editable. For an example of
this, add text to any iTools display. I'm not sure that that example
will teach you anything about doing it, but it does prove it is possible.
2. No, I don't use Windows. But if there is some COM object out there
that does what you want, you could add it to your IDL application (on
Windows).
Again, these solutions are not easy at all, especially if you are
talking about multi-line wrapping text like an editor window. A single
line might not be too bad, but making it editable will be a major pain.
