💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay bestie so listen. Tk::ROText "IS A" text widget, right, but it's the text widget that removed all the bindings that would let you mess with the contents. Like, no editing. None. It's giving ✨immovable object✨.

buuut 👀 the contents can still be changed via method calls. So it's not locked down for you, the programmer — it's just locked down for the person typing into it. no cap. 🔥

🎀 BINDINGS 🎀

Only the read-only bindings from Tk::Text are available in Tk::ROText. And then, on top of that, these extra bindings are defined:

• <space> — moves the cursor forward by one screenful. scoot scoot 🛼
• <BackSpace> — moves the cursor backward by one screenful. rewinding the vibes ⏪
