- Again, isn't that what I said? Or rather the converse, that it can't be done
- using objc_edit? My approach is to have a callback for the textfield that
- gets activated whenever a character is pressed. The user can then do whatever
- verification he wants in that routine and return one of a set of values to
- indicate whether the key should be displayed or ignored, or whether it has
- a special function. You can of course do things other than verification in
- the callback routine - you want a second textfield echoing the input in german
- as its typed in english - you got it! ;-)
