[plt-scheme] escape sequences in DrScheme

My bad. Looks like you need to use a text%/editor% combo, as the
following awesome example demonstrates:

#lang scheme/gui

; Make an awesome style delta
(define lol-delta (make-object style-delta%))
(send lol-delta set-delta 'change-bold)
(send lol-delta set-delta 'change-size 72)
(send lol-delta set-delta-foreground "RED")

; Make some awesome text to dispaly
(define text (new text%))
(send text change-style lol-delta)
(send text insert "OH HAI!  I IZ AWESOME!!1!" 0)

(define snippy (make-object editor-snip% text))

snippy
