Properties  

allowRealTime

input.t[33]

Allow real-time events. If this is true, we’ll allow real-time events to interrupt the input; if it’s nil, we’ll freeze the real-time clock while reading input.

promptFunc

input.t[26]

The prompt function. This is a function pointer (which is frequently given as an anonymous function) or nil; if it’s nil, we won’t show any prompt at all, otherwise we’ll call the function pointer to display a prompt as needed.

Methods  

beginInputFont ( )

input.t[41]

Begin the input style. This should do anything required to set the font to the desired attributes for the input text. By default, we’ll simply display <.inputline> to set up the default input style.

endInputFont ( )

input.t[47]

End the input style. By default, we’ll close the <.inputline> that we opened in beginInputFont().
