Description libing wang

There are users requesting the need of this:
Is their an event listener or status service that can notify me when a command is invoked? For example, if i wanted to be notified when a user triggers toggleTabMode.

The tab mode event is dispatched per the commit:

I've also added the listener in the demo page on how to listen to the tab mode, wrap mode and overwrite mode change event.

embeddedEditor.create(params}).then(function(editorViewer) {
editorViewer.editor.getTextView().addEventListener("Options",function(evt){
	if(evt.options) {
		if(evt.options.tabMode !== undefined) {
			//CTRL+m keys
			//True: you can tab inside the editor. False: Tab will get out of the editor DIV
			console.log("Tab mode has been changed to: " + evt.options.tabMode);
		} else if(evt.options.wrapMode !== undefined) {
			//CTRL+ALT+w keys
			console.log("Wrap mode has been changed to: " + evt.options.wrapMode);
		} else if(evt.options.overwriteMode !== undefined) {
			//Insert key
			console.log("Overwrite mode has been changed to: " + evt.options.overwriteMode);
		} else {
			console.log("Other options has been changed: ");
			console.log(evt.options);
		}
	}
});
