Topic: Text Command Lisp

[CAB]

This is my new play toy.
This simulates the TEXT command without the justification option.
My intent is to be able to call this from a lisp so no text command needed.
It creates a text object, then allow user to edit it via grread
return the text string, keep the text object unless ESCAPE.

This will give more control of the text object created and my plan is to add a continue text
so it will indeed act like the text command.

The idea came from the code in this thread:
http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=24898.msg300345#msg300345

This is a test release, so I'm looking for feed back, Good & Bad.

Great ideal...

1) "Starting Text" stays on screen, it should disappear.
2) How about adding continued text to next line option.

1) That is not the prompt but the text to be edited, could be ""
    But that a good idea to have a prompt there.
2) That will be my next major addition

Glad you like it.
