And seems to require XML::Quote.

But it looks great.

To make it integrate better into existing apps, it would be good to be
able to place the toolbar separately from the editor widget.

Also, it might be useful to be able to restrict the number of fonts.
I'm thinking of writing a PDF where by default only certain fonts are
available.

Absolutely.

Definitely.

Thanks for sharing!

Some warning messages. With

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;
use lib 'Gtk2-Ex-WYSIWYG';
use Gtk2::Ex::WYSIWYG;
use Gtk2 -init;

my $window = Gtk2::Window -> new;
$window -> signal_connect ( 'delete-event' => sub { Gtk2 -> main_quit } );
my $main_vbox = Gtk2::VBox -> new;
$window -> add ( $main_vbox );
my $edit = Gtk2::Ex::WYSIWYG->new(undo_stack => 0);
$main_vbox -> add ( $edit );
$window -> show_all;
Gtk2 -> main;

I am getting
