<DIV>Hi there. I'm new to this list. Hope somebody might be able to help 
me.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I use a screen magnifier called Zoomtext (ZT), as I can't see very well. 
:)</DIV>
<DIV>I have recently started using python, but find that the cursor / caret is 
not tracked by ZT in any of the python editors or python shells that I have 
tried.<BR>It is very frustrating.<BR>I have&nbsp;tried ZT's "Caret Detect" too, 
and it asks me if I want to keep the new caret definition. I say yes, but it 
still does not work.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>I have tried several python editors, including Active Python and WX Python. 
Seems like the problem is with the cursor / caret in any app written in 
python.</DIV>
<DIV>Almost as if a python text cursor is not like a standard windows 
cursor.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>How can I overcome / work around this problem?</DIV>
<DIV>Is there anybody on this list that uses Zoomtext with Python?</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Thanx for any help.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
