Fluid starts the Text_Display widget with a down frame. After changing
the class to Fl_Multiline_Output, the frame remained and lead to
a unuseable background. Text was drawn over text instead of first
erasing the old background before drawing new text.

The request is to change the default box type of the text editor and
text display widgets in fluid to DOWN_BOX, instead of DOWN_FRAME.

Um, Fl_Text_Display is a bit strange in defaulting to FL_DOWN_FRAME instead of FL_DOWN_BOX. This was done to reduce flicker while the screen rebuilds, but should probably be fixed nevertheless.

Fluid however is behaving correctly.

The right way to create a multiline output is to create an Fl_Output and set the typpe to "multiline". The box type is then correct. The way described here can lead to more than this one headache.
