Hi,
we have a problem with xview: we were trying to use TEXTSW package to display
some file; everything works ok, but TEXTSW window has just one (default) scrollbar,
and it is vertical; 

we needed a horizontal scrollbar for the same window along with the vertical one;
manual says explicitly that you can not do that with TEXTSW; still, we were able to
attach the second (horizontal scrollbar); it is visible - but it does not feel the related
events;

also we tried to use multiline text panel - same problem persists (just one scrollbar).

So the question is: what to use to display some big (long & wide) file?
Would you please send us email?
Thanks in advance.
Vlad
