38 This input field displays '\n' characters as new lines rather than ^J,
39 and accepts the Return, Tab, and up and down arrow keys. This is for
40 editing multiline text.
42 This is far from the nirvana of text editors, and is probably only
43 good for small bits of text, 10 lines at most. Note that this widget
44 does not support scrollbars or per-character color control.
46 If you are presenting large amounts of text and need scrollbars
47 or full color control of characters, you probably want Fl_Text_Editor
50 In FLTK 1.3.x, the default behavior of the 'Tab' key was changed
51 to support consistent focus navigation. To get the older FLTK 1.1.x
52 behavior, set Fl_Input_::tab_nav() to 0. Newer programs should consider using
55 class FL_EXPORT Fl_Multiline_Input : public Fl_Input {
58 Creates a new Fl_Multiline_Input widget using the given
59 position, size, and label string. The default boxtype is FL_DOWN_BOX.
61 Inherited destructor destroys the widget and any value associated with it.
