1. wxEuphoria Rich text control

I am learning the wxEuphoria package, and am ready to start printing some rich text pages. I was looking through the rich text documentation, but there are no euphoria related demos for this. For instance how would I use the wxRichTextFormattingDialog. What control do I begin with etc. If someone could help me or point in the right direction to start using these controls that would be great. Also I looked at wxWidget docs and they are not very clear either.
Thanks, Mike

Here are links to the wxEuphoria docs. I consult these often:
See here for the wxRichTextCtrl.
I was recently looking to utilize wxStyledTextCtrl, but that's not available for wxEuphoria yet. I haven't been able to use wxRichTextCtrl either. Greg (ghaberek) says it should be available though.

I am experimenting with it. I do not think that the dialogs will work though. As far as the control goes, I think I can hash out something that will do what I need it to.

You should be able to print a wxRichTextCtrl control like this. However, get_buffer() throws a Segmentation fault with this code.
atom buffer = get_buffer( myRichText ) show_richprint_print_buffer( myRichPrint, buffer )
You should be able to format a wxRichTextCtrl control like this. However, show_modal() throws a Segmentation fault with this code.
atom dialog = create( wxRichTextFormattingDialog, {wxRICHTEXT_FORMAT_STYLE_EDITOR,myFrame} ) show_modal( dialog )
It seems to do with the RTTI (Runtime Type Information) system. The segfaults are on wxObject::Ref for get_buffer() and wxObject::IsKindOf for show_modal().
I will try to do some additional debugging on this. Not sure what exactly is going on yet.

Greg, thank you very much for the help. I have a control working, and I am going to try to use the different functions. I think I understand some of this.

I'd like to experiment with this.
Where (or how) do I download and install the wxWidgets dll's for Windows 7?
I don't have a compiler available.

You can get my latest build of wxEuphoria for Windows here.
wxEuphoria-0.17.0-win32-alpha4.exe (3.68 MB)
wxEuphoria-0.17.0-win32-alpha4.zip (5.84 MB)
This includes the compiled wxWidgets DLL's.

Thanks! I had to fix one bug to get it to run. I think the wnd below should be window :) wxeud.e around line 7450
public procedure show_tabart_window_list( atom tabArt, atom window, sequence items, atom active_idx ) c_proc( WX_SHOW_TABART_WINDOW_LIST, {tabArt,wnd,items,active_idx})
