Detailed Description

A widget that provides a multi-line edit.

WTextArea is an inline widget.

To act upon text changes, connect a slot to the changed() signal. This signal is emitted when the user changed the content, and subsequently removes the focus from the line edit.

To act upon editing, connect a slot to the WInteractWidget::keyWentUp signal.

At all times, the current content may be accessed with the text() method.
