Parameters

        "Edit" push button (boolean)

Output

Port:
        "string" output, containing the edited string from Dialog Box.

Description

  The Edit String module puts up a LONG dialog box, allows typing
  of any string, then with either "OK" or "CANCEL" controls,
  will output this string to the output port of the module.
  The next time the "Edit" button is pushed, the dialog box
  reappears, with the old string, which can be edited.
  This module is for long expressions, lists of ints, etc, where
  the normal string type_in widget is too small.
  The dialog box comes up with nicer colours than the default grey.
