Goals and Objectives of PHREAD

A functional replacement for ReadModal. A number of
features were added:

*Optional Startup Field Select
*Optional ReadKeys
*Mouse Support
*Wrap Support
*Action Fields (Alternate Reader Supplied)
*Logical Toggle Fields (Alternate Reader Supplied)

Possible Future Enhancements
Memo Fields
Array Fields ( comma delimited, list box )
Vertical Scrolling ( w/virtual row coordinates )

Cargo Field:
When using the ButtonReader this field is the action
field.

Optional Startup Field:
A second parameter (numeric) will indicate which field
in which to begin the read.

ReadKeys:
An optional third parameter is an array of "ReadKeys".
These are just like SETKEYs except they only exist while
in the read. The format is as follows:
{ { key code, key action }, ... }
Where key codes is an inkey value. Key action can be one
of three different types:
NUMERIC -- jump to that field
BLOCK -- evaluate that block (current obj and
getlist are passed)
CHARACTER -- jump to field name (or do nothing)

Complete MOUSE support.

GetGotoFld an additional support field which will jump to
field number.

Also if you create any readers please use RDKey ( ) rather
than inkey ( ) and GetSetFocus ( obj ) rather than
obj:SetFocus ( ).

Sorry for the sad docs, but this is free after all. If you
have any questions / comments, find any bugs, or just find
this program feel free to leave me some e-mail at:
