Numeric Field (NM)


Description
Edit field which watches a numeric singleton.

Format should be an expression that gives a format specification such as 8 2 or a valid argument to Quad-FMT. The field will reject keystrokes which are not valid in a number, or if you exceed the length or decimal places allowed by the format (only if supplied as a numeric argument).

Note that a format of 8 is read as {8 0}, which is not quite the same as the format primitive. If no format is given, the APL default format is used.
