31 * The listener interface for receiving text events.
32 *
33 * The class that is interested in processing a text event
34 * implements this interface. The object created with that
35 * class is then registered with a component using the
36 * component's <code>addTextListener</code> method. When the
37 * component's text changes, the listener object's
38 * <code>textValueChanged</code> method is invoked.
