Keyword Only Parameters <br />
[TEXT] Text or Table to show initially. Table is converted to readable<br />
text. <br />
<br />
This primitive can display text in a box. Since it uses the AWT<br />
TextArea class, it is limited to a single font and color. Lines<br />
may be added via messages. The /EDIT switch may be used to make<br />
the text editable. The /SCROLL switch can be used to control<br />
scrollbars.<br />
<br />
Within the text window it is possible to use the cut/copy/paste<br />
functions common to most text processing programs. They work as<br />
follows:<br />
CONTROL + 'x' - Removes the selected text and places it on the<br />
clipboard. (This is only enabled if "/EDIT" is<br />
specified.)<br />
<br />
CONTROL + 'c' - Copies the selected text and places it on the<br />
clipboard.<br />
<br />
CONTROL + 'v' - Pastes any text on the clipboard to the location<br />
of the cursor. (This is only enabled if "/EDIT"<br />
is specified.)<br />
<br />
Messages:<br />
APPEND - Append text or a Table to the text currently in the box<br />
If data is a table the key/value pairs are extracted and<br />
written as lines<br />
APPENDL - Same as APPEND but inserts a linefeed/CR after the text <br />
