- I am using UIT to make a customized alphanumeric input panel. The
- idea is to allow the programmer to assign default values and max/mins
- to a certain field with a certain length. Sketch it? OK.

- How do I get the curser to immediately skip over positions like the
- ones I have arrowed above? It is trivial to make it so that the data
- entered in a position gets ignored but I want the user to know for
- sure that he/she can't enter input in certain places. Currently, I
- am simply using xv_set() and xv_get() to pass things around but maybe
- you know a better way?
