<p><font size="4">I meant, TextModel, not TextEditor.</font></p>
<p><font size="4">You have three objects:</font></p>
<p><font size="4">SystemWindow: to present the view</font></p>
<p><font size="4">TextEditor: to represent the the functionality of
a text editor</font></p>
<p><font size="4">TextModel: to hold the text</font></p>
<p><font size="4">Then there is also TextModelMorph...</font></p>
<p><font size="4">I find the whole Text model in Cuis very difficult
to understand. I suspect it is the result of a legacy code from
the '70 with multiple partial refactorings ending with code not
well designed, but it works. It is very far from any MVC/MVP
pattern, the responsibilities between the involved objects are
interlaced making hard to understand the logic. </font></p>
<p><font size="4">I will never pick this as a topic for a learner.
You have only scratched the surface. Take another topic, no need
to constantly hit the head on the same wall.</font></p>
