Methods

 
 EditorKeyPress consumes a keyevent.
 @param aKeyEvent    key event to consume

void handleKeyPress(in nsIDOMKeyEvent aKeyEvent)

 Insert a line break into the content model.
 The interpretation of a break is up to the implementation:
 it may enter a character, split a node in the tree, etc.
 This may be more efficient than calling InsertText with a newline.

void insertLineBreak()

 Inserts a string at the current location,
 given by the selection.
 If the selection is not collapsed, the selection is deleted
 and the insertion takes place at the resulting collapsed selection.

 @param aString   the string to be inserted

void insertText(in DOMString aStringToInsert)

 Similar to the setter for wrapWidth, but just sets the editor
 internal state without actually changing the content being edited
 to wrap at that column.  This should only be used by callers who
 are sure that their content is already set up correctly.

void setWrapColumn(in long aWrapColumn)
