Have you seen my !Text>Draw application? It places the caret into
strings of chars, the position being determined either by mouse click
or keypresses (arrow keys included). There is code for moving the
caret etc (the wimp EORs the caret on to the screen, so it has to be
unplotted before plotting in its new position). Font_ScanString is
used a number of times in the source.

You are welcome to see the source code for this - confirm a valid
email (privately to my spamcop posting address, which is valid) and I
will send you it.

The main downside is that, although having started out as Basic, it
is now in C, using oslib and the toolbox, and being my first
excursion into C, is certainly not the best example of programming
style.
