ShowText - return line number

[ssimop]

I wonder whether there exists a quick method to return a ShowText selected line number, as in the case of j=PopupMenu. Actually, I can do it by trigering accessible object on Showtext window, but I am not happy with it, I do not find it elegant.

Best regards in advance
