| Today I was making some tests with on application and tried to paste 3k bytes of text on a Fl_Input and discovered after looking the source code that Fl_Input only manage 1023 bytes (1024 with zero terminator) but the documentation doesn't mention any size limit.
Probably the documentation should be updated to reflect this for developers to know beforehand it's capabilities instead of discover it the hard way (when a user of the application try to input more than 1023 bytes), also multiline that is a FL_Input is limited to the same 1023 bytes. | |

| Oh, I did not know! We should change the code to either make the buffer dynamic, or to cut the remaining chars off with a warning. I'd much prefer the first solution.... . | |

| Fixed in Subversion repository.
This has been fixed in FLTK 1.3.3 by Manolo, see svn r 10123.
The input size is now unlimited. Please upgrade to FLTK 1.3.3 or later. | |
