Hi.
I wrote the following to make some of my input validation from
TkEntry's a bit easier. I thought some others might be interested
(still has some parts that could use work)
···
#
# Usage:
# num = TkEntry.new(...)
# num.filter.integer.nosign # 123, 625, 86434, etc
#
# year = TkEntry.new(...)
# year.filter.integer.nosign.left_digit(4) # any number up to four
digits - no sign
#
# float = TkEntry.new(...)
# float.filter.real.right_digit(3) # any real number with at most 3
places past the decimal
#
# month = TkEntry.new(...)
# month.filter.month.letters(3) # A month - can be either 1-12 or
names (up to 3 letters)
#
require 'tk'
class TkEntry
def acceptable_keys
# This part is probably what needs more info in it...
