Oh, I don't think so. :-(

In fact, this may be worse.

Grab the recorder, which has this algorithm implemented:

ftp://ftp.dfanning.com/pub/dfanning/outgoing/misc/recorder__ define.pro

Then, try this:

IDL> o=obj_new('recorder', text=['dog','cow','coyote','dog','rooster'])
IDL> o->gui

Now select the second "dog". Click delete. The first dog disappears.

Now select from the last "e" in coyote to the first "r" in
rooster. Click delete. *Everything* disappears!

Don't forget to destroy that object!

IDL> Obj_Destroy, o

But keep working. I haven't spent that *entire* $100 on
beer... yet. :-)

Cheers,

David

P.S. Let's just say if anyone solves this one, I have
another little puzzler involving contour plots that is
also causing me to pull my hair out. :-(
