    I've just started looking at the Think C Class library - I've been modifying
the TinyEdit application.  Now I'd like to use the new TextEdit that handles
styles.  I think I can go into the CStaticText class and modify it to do that.
But philosophically, is that right?  I mean, should I create a new class say
CStyleText that is a subclass of CPanorama to do it??

    It seems a good idea to use styled TE for handling small chunks of text.
I'm a bit concerned why no one else is doing it (am I on the wrong track?).
In fact, why isn't styled TE supported by the class library??
    Any comments would be appreciated.
