"int Fl_Input_::maximum_size ( ) const [inline]
Gets the maximum length of the input field.
Todo:
It is not clear if this function is actually required"
re Todo
I think this is required.
When the size of the contents of the input field needs to be limited,
so it can be stored in a fixed length buffer for instance, this is
very useful.
eg Fl_Input_::maximum_size (30);
When the content are transfered to a dynamic buffer, again, very
useful.
eg
char *buffer = (char *)alloca(Fl_Input_::maximum_size () + 1);
I vote to keep Fl_Input_::maximum_size ()
