I have created a simple GtkAda GUI which contains a read-only Text_View
widget. The Text_View consists of a few lines which end with strings of
the format "= ABC123x\*.ext". When a user double-clicks over the
numeric part, only the "123" section is highlighted. I would prefer
either the "ABC123x" section or the "ABC123x\*.ext" section to be
highlighted. Is this possible (and simple for a Gtk newb like myself)?
