Alex, the following coder works for me under Python 2.5 under Windows XP:

from  Tkinter import *
root = Tk()
tw = Text(root)
tw.insert(END, "The @cat sat on the mat.")
tw.pack()
root.update()
pos=tw.search("@", "1.0")
end = tw.search("\W", pos + "+1c", regexp=True)
print pos, end

If it fails on your setup, what version of Python do you have? What
Platform?

Mick
