CLASS DESCRIPTION
          VkPrefText is a text preference object.  The user can type a
          character string into the object.  See VkPrefItem for more generic
          information about preference objects.



FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS
   VkPrefText()
          VkPrefText(const char* name, int columns = 5);
          virtual void ~VkPrefText(void);


          Creates a Motif XmText widget as its base, using the name suffixed
          by "Base".  A label widget is created using the name suffixed by
          "Label".

   setValue()
           void setValue(char* str);


          Changes the text object's current and real value.

   getValue()
          char* getValue(void);


          Copies the text object's current value to the real value, and
          returns a reference to it.  The returned value is an internal
          pointer and should not be freed.
