[Laszlo-dev] new FLash 9 TextField API, appendText

[Henry Minsky]

There is a new API on Flash 9 TextField objects, appendText, which
they say is more efficient for appending text. We should
see if there is code that can make use of this, and probably add an
API call for LzText to support it.


appendText	()	method
public function appendText(newText:String):void

Language Version : 	ActionScript 3.0
Player Version : 	Flash Player 9

Appends the string specified by the newText parameter to the end of
the text of the text field. This method is more efficient than an
addition assignment (+=) on a text property (such as
someTextField.text += moreText), particularly for a text field that
contains a significant amount of content.
