Summary: implementation of Text.dump method

Initial Comment:
This is a fairly robust implementation of the dump
command for the text widget. It supports all the
options of the underlying Tk command. This patch is
relative to version 2.2.1.

A quick test suggets that you don't parse the dump output
correctly. I entered "The quick brown fox jumps over the
lazy dog.\n" into a text widget, and then called
t.dump("1.0", "2.0"). It returned the following garbage:

[('text', '{The', 'quick'), ('brown', 'fox', 'jumps'),
('over', 'the', 'lazy'), ('dog.}', '1.0', 'mark'),
('current', '1.44', 'mark'), ('anchor', '1.44', 'mark'),
('insert', '1.44', 'text'), ('{', '}', '1.44')]

It looks like you don't parse the curly braces at all.

Maybe you can find someone on c.l.py to help you fix this?
