text <-pointed: at=point, round=[bool] -> index=int

Returns character index from a pixel-position relative to the top-left corner (origin) of the text. This method may be used to set the caret using the mouse:

?- new(T, text('Hello World')),
   send(T, show_caret, @on),
   send(T, recogniser,
        click_gesture(left, '', single,
                                          message(T, caret,
                                                          ?(T, pointed,
                                                            @event?position)))).
