However, since the text widget adjusts the horizontal scroll bar depending on what's visible, that would mean the scroll bar would appear and disappear as you scrolled vertically through the text, which would be disconcerting. So for a text I think it's better to have the scrollbar there permanently. Also, I wonder if you could use pack forget instead of destroying the scrollbar?
