As David Craig is raising questions about twiddle, let me raise a few of my own:


1) The error messages in twiddle and twiddleWords in textManip.tcl refer to their 
old names and should be updated to:

message "twiddle aborted. A space is involved"

and

message "twiddleWords error: two words must be before"


2) Does anyone else ever need the "transpose-lines" function that EMACS provides?  
I wrote a simple proc to do this a long time ago and stuck it in my prefs.tcl 
along with the EMACS key-binding (CTRL-x CTRL-t).  Here it is:

proc twiddleLines {} {
# put the insertion point at the beginning of the current line
	set lowerLineBeginning [lineStart [getPos]]
# select the first character, just to get a selection area
 	select $lowerLineBeginning [pos::math $lowerLineBeginning + 1]
# extend the selection to the end of the line
	endLineSelect
# extend the selection to include the carriage return at the end of the line
	forwardCharSelect
	cut
	previousLine
	paste
}

Bind	't'		<zX>	twiddleLines
