Subject: Wdiget -htmltext is broken
I am trying to have a label that is all bold, with part of it reversed. However Label does not seem to heed the htmltext attribute. The closest I can come is the following, but the closing tag is shown as plain text. $cui->add('status', 'Window', -y=>-1, -height=>1, -htmltext=>1)-> add('explain', 'Label', -reverse=>1, -bold=>1, -text=> ' H)elp I)nvert V)iew Q)uit S)ave </reverse> no reverse'.); Note: It -htmltext=>1 on the Label add line does nothing either

Working on this. -htmltext is, in fact, broken, but I haven't yet tracked down exactly why
No further movement - closing out
Subject: Widget -htmltext is broken
Why would you resolve if it remains unfixed? The proper status is stalled.

Augh! I clicked the wrong bug. I'm sorry.

Okay, I've been able to track down a few things. Apparently (for some reason) only Listboxes are supposed to handle html, since the method where they are parsed is text_draw, and only Listbox invokes this. However, for some reason 1) text_draw lives in Common, and 2) Widget's instantiation method sets htmltext to 1. Both of these imply that this option should be available for other classes.
