AxeiiText widget resources
--------------------------

The following AxeiiText resources are recognised

`blinkPeriod'
     This resource specifies how long the matching `(', `{' or `[' is
     highlit when a `)', `}' or `]' is typed, and is expressed in
     milliseconds. The default is 500, i.e. half a second.  Setting the
     value to 0 switches off the feature.

`blockCaret'
     This boolean resource specifies whether the default caret
     indicating the insertion point should be replaced by an inbuilt
     block caret.

     WARNING: Since the introduction of *blockCaret* (above) and
     *caretBitmap* (below) it has come to light that the Tab key has no
     visible effect when either has been selected, although the Tab
     character is inserted into the file. Neither the cause nor a fix
     for this problem has been found.

`caretBitmap'
     This resource names the pathname of a file containing a bitmap that
     should be used as the caret that indicates the insertion point.
     This resource takes precedence over *blockCaret* if both are set.

`columns'
     This resource specifies the desired width in characters.  It
     overrides any setting of the width in pixels.

`deleteOnInsert'
     This boolean resource controls whether the entry of the first
     character via the keyboard (i.e. via the insert-char action)
     following the setting of the selection should delete the
     selection. The default value is False. This feature cannot be
     supported on older (than Release 5) versions of X, and setting
     *deleteOnInsert* will have no effect.

`expandTabs'
     This resource specifies whether tabs should be expanded into spaces
     or not. The default is False. The resource only has an effect if
     the Tab key is bound to the action *insert-or-expand-tab* - which
     it is by default. Note: Actions specific to aXe.

`rows'
     This resource specifies the desired height in characters. It
     overrides any setting of the height in pixels.

`tabEvery'
     This resource is used to request that tab stops be set every
     *tabEvery* character positions. The default value is 8.

`undo'
     This resource specifies whether undo information should be kept.
     The default is True. Note: How the undo mechanism works.

`undoLevel'
     This resource specifies for how many recent operations undo
     information should be kept. The default value is 1. A value of 0
     implies keeping unlimited information, but remember that doing this
     could incur excessive memory usage costs.
