Hi!

I just wondered how can I show ä's and ö's
(a with two dots and o with two dots)

In GFX_TEXT -mode it works fine, but
when I use DEGUI routines (edit_text_class),
I cant view those characters. Should I hack
the code of DEGUI so that it accepts
those characters or what?

I assume that the best way to handle this
and my other problem (how to check if
enter has been pressed) is to derive
a class from edittext_object class.

What should I re-write?

I think I shouldn't touch
those d_degui_edit_proc() (found in d_edit2.c)
and _draw_text() & _draw_edittext_object() (found in d_edit1.c)

and only thing I should do is
derive a class from edittext_object
and define constructor and destructor
and msg_char -function to it.

Is this correct approach or does somebody
invent a better way.
