/**
  This input field displays '\\n' characters as new lines rather than ^J,
  and accepts the Return, Tab, and up and down arrow keys.  This is for
  editing multiline text.

  This is far from the nirvana of text editors, and is probably only
  good for small bits of text, 10 lines at most. Note that this widget
  does not support scrollbars or per-character color control.

  If you are presenting large amounts of text and need scrollbars
  or full color control of characters, you probably want Fl_Text_Editor
  instead.

  In FLTK 1.3.x, the default behavior of the 'Tab' key was changed
  to support consistent focus navigation. To get the older FLTK 1.1.x
  behavior, set Fl_Input_::tab_nav() to 0. Newer programs should consider using
  Fl_Text_Editor.
