A text widget implements a basic GUI based text editor. Manipulation of the text is not limited to users, your scripts can also do it.

Text widgets have a mechanism for identifying subsets of the text. This is valuable because you can assign different fonts, colors, and bindings to these subsets as well as perform editing operations on them.

Although primarily oriented towards textual material, text widgets can also contain other widgets.
