Below are some calls to the new textedit routines described in IM Vol5.
starting on page 259.

TEGetStyle(offset, style, lineHeight, fontAscent, te); 
TEGetHeight(endLine, startLine, te);
TEStylPaste(te);
TESetStyle(mode, style, redraw, te);
TEStylNew(destRect, viewRect);
TEReplaceStyle(mode, oldStyle, newStyle, redraw, te);
GetStylHandle(te);
GetStylScrap(te);
SetStylHandle(h, te);
TEStylInsert(text, length, h, te);
TEGetPoint(offset, te);
TEGetHeight(endLine, startLine, te);
