Description:
PR 778511 (which has been closed) is still a problem. I see it in two 
cases:
- MacOS X 10.4.7 running Aqua Tcl/Tk 8.4.13.
- Linux running Tcl/Tk 8.4.7

PR 778511 include a demo script that works well (once you translate 
the html entities). I will attach a translated version to speed up testing.

Test script from the original bug report
  http://core.tcl.tk/tk/tktview/778511ffffffffffffff
:

    text .t -yscrollcommand ".yscroll set" -wrap none 
    scrollbar .yscroll -command ".t yview" -orient vert 
    pack .yscroll -side right -fill y 
    pack .t -fill both -expand true 
    for {set i 0} {$i < 100} {incr i} { 
    .t insert end "Testing 123...\n" ELIDE 
    } 
    for {set i 0} {$i < 100} {incr i} { 
    .t insert end "Testing 456...\n" 
    } 
    .t tag configure ELIDE -elide 1 


This bug affects 8.4.x only, which is now very dead (end of support).

No issue with the test code above on core-8-5-branch ,or with trunk.

Closing as WONT FIX therefore.

Thank you!

Actually I can almost never find a ticket by its number. Numbers were kept unchanged when we switched to Fossil, nevertheless searching for '778511' (or any ticket you know the ID) on page https://core.tcl.tk/tk/ticket results in a 'No match' message. I would really welcome improvement on this, or alternatively if someone could teach me how to find a ticket by its number/hash...? The only way that works for me is to search for _all_ tickets (an adequate request exists) and perform a textual search in the huge html  results page.

Francois,

this new report is the exact copy of a sourceforge ticket. You can not find the number as sourceforge renumbered all tickets (which was a reason to quit sourceforge). Here are the tickets: https://sourceforge.net/p/tktoolkit/bugs/search/?q=778511
