Jmf,

thanks for the advice,  however I do want to know on which os you are
and which python version you use.
As I have never had any problems with not being able to enter text.

And about the os problem:
I always code on linux, my first version of this release worked
perfectly on linux, then I tried it on windows and I found out that
there was some bug that linux ignored but windows complained about
now it is fixed and is indeed cross-platform.

And I chat on #python and #wxpython almost every day/week so I do know
who to contact in case of problems ;)
and styledtextctrl is indeed a pain in the ass some times :p
