The purpose of the ntext package is to make the text widget behave more like
other text-editing applications. It makes the text widget more useful for
implementing a text editor, and makes it behave in a way that will be more
familiar to most users.

Ntext is a module of tklib.

Version 1.0b3 was committed to tklib at 2018-02-17 18:25 UTC [8ce27858c2].
It is not yet available in the packaged version of tklib.

Features added since v1.0b1
* Compatibility with revised_text.
* When indenting word-wrapped lines, ntext uses the text widget tag option
-lmargincolor if available (i.e. for Tk 8.6.6 and above) to color the
indents.
* The text widget generates a <<Selection>> event whenever its selection
changes. In older versions of Tk, there are a few corner cases in which
<<Selection>> is not generated when it should be. In these older versions
of Tk, Ntext generates a <<Selection>> event in these cases.
* Ntext includes revisions made to Tk library/text.tcl since the last
release of ntext.
