I'm using the Tk::Text module, and I'm stumbling through the docs trying to figure out how to use the "mark' method.

All I want to do is keep track of certain elemtnts I'm inserting into my text, and at some point insert more text below the appropriate mark.
I'm using the following code as my trial, and I'm trying to insert "Foo" below Second

#!usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use Tk; use Tk::Text; use vars qw($text); &init_ui; $text->insert('0.0', "First\n"); $text->insert('end', "Second\n"); $text->insert('end', "Third\n"); $text->markSet("Foo"); ## Not sure about this MainLoop; sub init_ui { my $mw = MainWindow->new( -title => 'Mark in Text ??'); $mw->resizable(0,0); $text = $mw->Scrolled(qw/Text -relief sunken -borderwidth 2 -height 12 -width 35 -wrap word -scrollbars e/ )->pack(-side => 'top'); }
Can anyone help?
