FillOut

The FillOut collects all FillOutElm together to a whole widget

-text
This is the title of the fillout
-entries
This is a list of FillOutElm's which makes up the fillout
-help
This is general help for the overall fillout
-export
This tells wether the widget shall be exported or not.
-default
This is the default string, with the following syntax: NOTE: You should always give the default values within a pair of braces, otherwise the slashes will be expanded one time to many: -default {%elm%\%}

Example:

Here's an example which should illustrate the use of FillOut:

  FillOutElm cwd ...
  FillOutElm user ...
  FillOutElm host ...

  FillOut prompt \
    -text "The user prompt"\
    -entries cwd user date \
    -default {(%user%@%host%) %cwd%} \
    -help "This is the default prompt for the shell..."

Here are three fillOutElm's which is used in the FillOut. The default value is: first a parenthesis ``(`` then the username, an ``@'', the hostname etc..
