- Readme for TextField Gadget

-
- I'll give a quick overview of what the draws and files are all about:
-
- TestTextField - a program to test the gadget (source provided)
- Readme - this file
- History - contains all the bug fix and new features from
- version to version
- License - how the files here can be distributed and who can
- use them and for what purpose
- Gadgets - drawer: that contains the textfield.gadget
- TestClass - drawer: source for TestTextField
- MUITest - drawer: source to show how to use gadget with MUI
- Doc - drawer: autodoc and guide file for programmers
- Oberon - drawer: files for Oberon programmers
- HSPascal - drawer: file for HSPascal programmers
- Include - drawer: files for C programmers
- SafeGIRPort - drawer: a patch to fix problems with CTM and MM
-
-
- This version (3.0), or any bug fixes to it, will probably be the
- last along this line. After seeing how the gadget is used and
- getting requests for certain types of changes, this gadget can no
- longer stay on its current path.
-
- This is not altogether bad. The new gadget I have in mind will do
- everything this one does, and I will probably write a textfield
- gadget that is simply a front end to the new gadget I write, such
- that it is fully compatible with programs that use textfield gadget
- now.
-
- I don't know when the new gadget will be done, but it will be much
- better, simply for the fact that I did not look at any other gadget
- on other OSes that are similar to textfield when designing textfield.
- I just had an idea in my mind for something that was really needed.
- From what I've seen, I can make improvements to textfield gadget and
- give features above all those similar gadget's I've investigated.
-
-
- Please remember to send me any comments or bug reports.
