Hi Richard! First, I really appreciate your help. I added the code to run and
any comments are welcome. I tried to remove all unnecessary line code to make
it as easy for you as possible. Best of all, Yaniv Kaplan.

class form(Frame):
    def __init__(self, master=None):
	Frame.__init__(self, master)
	self.expand_list = []
	self.text = ScrolledText(self)
	self.text.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=1)
	self.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=1)

some buttons to simulate real behaviour 	 text.insert(END, ' '*30)
