showTextBox


procedure showTextBox(title: string; initialContents: string; maxSize: integer; constraints: integer);

Shows the text box on the screen. Text box occupies the whole device display and no other form elements except commands can be added to the screen. The 'constraints' can be any of the following:

  var cont : command;
      quote : string;
  begin
    showTextBox('Enter message, '', 200, TF_ANY);
    cont := createCommand('Send', CM_SCREEN, 1);
    addCommand(cont);

    repeat
      delay(100);
    until getClickedCommand <> emptyCommand;

    quote := getTextBoxString;

    ...     
  end.
