 Text  L T W H Text Length BOX|NOBOX

This event is a simple text display with a BOX or with NOBOX drawn around it.

The L T W H are the same as for other gadgets.

The Text is the default text to be shown in the beginning. This can easily be
changed with the update command.

Length, specifies the length of the buffer you want - i.e. the maximum number
of characters likely to be shown in this text box. It is important that
you set this number correctly, otherwise the text will be clipped.

BOX or NOBOX are keywords denoting whether you want a BOX drawn around the
text or not.

IMPORTANT :
No commands other than Gadget modifiers (GadID, GadFont etc) can be attached
to this event, as these will never be executed (since the gadget can not
be selected and so never "happens")
