I am writing an application that uses CEditText to display some data.  As the
data comes in, there is a certain point where I want 1 new line of data to
force out 1 line of old data (the data that is at the beginning of the text).
Is there a better way to do this than TEDelete?  Using this method (calling
TESelect to select x bytes, then calling TEDelete) causes the text at the
bottom of the buffer to jump up... Is there a way to remove text from the top
of the buffer without creating this "jumping" effect in such a way that it is
transparent to a user?

Thanks...
